How long will the SS tires last?

The 18" wheels look to have low-profile tires on them. I know the SS is relatively new, but I was wondering how the tires are wearing and how many miles you think the set will get you. Also, when replacing, does anyone know the approximate cost to put new rubber on this car?
on edit - I realize the answer to these questions will vary a lot depending on how you drive, whether it be aggressively spinning the tires or cruising around like a grandma. I will be doing mostly highway cruising to work, so I should be able to get on the high side of the range.

I'll settle for 40k on tires, the problem is that'll set me up for new tires about every year anna half. I do 115 miles on a to/from with work myself so i never had tires last all that long compared to the average driver.I try to hopefully time new tires (with my prev trucks) with a upcoming winter driving season. Now with the SS as my daily driver i'm really thinking about biting the bullet and go with winter rims/tires and switch out for the changing seasons (and will prob give the illusion that my tires are lasting longer since i'll hopefully have 2 sets LOL)

Go to grocery store. Buy jar of mayonnaise. Put in cupboard for 5 years. Eat. Report back to us (if you can) on how that went for you.
