Were I only doing locals I'd probably keep them through the end of the year and they'd probably still have some tread left.
Generally I've found street miles just don't wear autocross tires the way autocross runs do. The only issue I can see is you might be adding some heat cycles, and even that's iffy.
From a driving perspective I really like the 660's, the only reason I'm going to Yokos is they come up to temp quicker and it's easier to remove heat than add it. I have an STX car with enough camber too, for a Street class car with limited camber the 660's are almost certainly a better choice.

This is really helpful. Thanks!
What type of pavement/conditions do you see at your autocross venue? The asphalt at our two venues is rather rough, though one is rumored to be resurfaced mid-summer.
