   The original rear tire on my Sportster lasted close to 20,000 miles. It   
   was a Dunlop tire often referred to by Sportster riders as Dunrocks. Great   
   tread life, not so great traction. I replaced them with Bridgestone   
   Spitfires. I only got 8,000 miles on the rear but the miles were more   
   fun :)   
      
   In the US manufacturers game the EPA fleet mileage requirements by   
   installing low rolling resistance tires. You can get LRR tires with   
   compounds that increase tire life but they cost more. The Yaris is   
   Toyota's cheapest model so the OEM tires aren't premium. Toyota must have   
   gotten a good deal because the first one had Bridgestone Potenzas which   
   are usually sold as a performance tire. They are not optimized for long   
   life.
