I just swapped out my first set of DWS06 for a new set after 45k miles.
They were still showing DW and likely could have gone a while longer if winter wasn't around the corner.

What setup did you have to only get 18k miles?
They were 20" tires on my ML350. Not sure if I got a bad set or what. I do know that Mercedes wanted an XL load rated tire and the DWS were not but that shouldn't have effected the tire wear at all. The weight of the car was still well below the rated weight of the tire.
