hard wearing tyres = hard compound, low rolling resistance, high fuel economy performance , LOW grip performance...  
  
if you want hard wearing, i guess things like  
  
Continental Eco-Contact, or Michelin Energy?  
but the though of compromising grip over mileage of tyres...does not bode well with me...  
  
do you find the bridgestones wearing quickly?!?!  
You know you can leave the ESP on ... wheel spin is not a requirement of normal driving... [/img]
