Probably 2/3 pavement (maybe less) and then rough gravel to serious monotrack MTB trails (tons of sharp rocks) and these tires seem tore up. Did tubeless with these and really only lasted like 4 months maybe which seems short. Anyone go any longer with these? Or do you think I can keep going?
Gonna replace them with Pirelli Gravel Ms.
Any tires out there that perform this well but last longer given 2/3ish pavement?

Pretty sure that’s too aggressive of a tread to last long on mostly pavement
Small price to pay for enjoying yourself and staying fit?
Get a semi-slick with tread towards the edges.
you can definitely keep going but that does seem like normal wear for a tire like this. my mezcals are also showing a lot of wear after about 1000 miles of maybe 40% pavement 60% rocky gravel or singletrack. high performance tires have soft rubber, it doesn’t last that long.
