Nope, $1300 each. The only tires I can think of that cost that much are extreme off-road tires that the trophy trucks use in the Baja 500.

10k miles sounds about right for rear tires on a RWD sports car that's used to it's full potential. IDK what tires that lady was using, but my tires have a 280 treadware rating and they last me about 10k miles for the rear and 15k for the front since I like the occassional burn-out and tend to spin my tires when I take off or get up to speed (I've been known to get on the freeway going sideways at 70 MPH).
