Then either the GY tyres generally wear better or you do a lot of motorway driving or a bit of both.
That's still only just over half the mileage I get from Range Rover and Land Cruiser [the big one] but congratulations on getting 80% more milage than [my wife mainly] manages on our Q7. Unfortunately I do believe you are at the upper limit of what most people manage on their Q7 tyres. All 4 tyres mind you, not just front or back ones as would be the case with a 2wd car generally.
I am also glad but slightly shocked that you consider the mileage to be acceptable. You obviously find wasting time, money and recources on your car to be acceptable. I, on the other hand, compare it with alternatives I have owned and run and find it completely unacceptable.
