AFAIK real rally tires won't last that long too. Recalling conversation in shop about them .. they mostly are for one race. Obviously, they still can be used, but thread blocks will have worn/rounded off edges and one cannot expect competitive top grip from them anymore. No own experience on how that compares to street legal winter tires wear on gravel, but imho low loger term wear is not something to be expected from rally tires as it never was among priorities of developing it, just as with race slicks for grip driving. Top grip for stage, reinforcement to get by even punctured and throughout those jumps .. but long lasting? Doubtful.
Andrew: but shouldn't some all-seasons fit better rally use? Most of them also have winter-tires like extra thread sipes/more threadblocks, but probably not as soft rubber compound, thus maybe will last better in heat?
