Im looking at getting the staggered GT500 19 inch wheel/tire combo from AM for my wife's 2010 GT, but my question is this: Since the tires cannot be rotated front to back and vice versa how long would a set last?

I have a 2010 GT with the GT500 wheels also and it depends on how often you drive your car and how hard you drive your car.

If you order the wheels and tires from someplace like Tirerack, have the tires siped. It doesn't necesarily extend tread life but it does help the tire wear more evenly (helpful on tires you can't rotate).
