I guess it depends entirely on the tyre, and the use. My commuter goes through a Schwalbe Land Cruiser on the back every 3000 miles. Not too surprised as it's where all the weight is with the rack and bags etc. Fronts last about double that.
I have yet to replace a tyre on my road bikes due to wear. I fit Conti Gatorskins and use them year round, I'm not a racing snake so no interest in the marginal gains lighter tyres may give. The RT-58 has just over 3000 miles on and the front tyre looks new, the rear has no visible signs of wear.
