Default Tire life

I just don't understand how tires don't last as long as they used to. I mean only 9353 miles on the V and the tires are almost at the wear bars. It is a Cadillac with Michelin PS2's. Don't they normally get 50,000 miles on Michelin's? It can't be the 556HP/551TQ combined with a genetic defect of a heavier right foot causing a rapid removal of the rubber on the tires is it? Could this also be compounded by the sweet sounding Corsa's screaming as the hammer is dropped?

Shopping at tire rack for replacements as the wife gives me dirty looks and realizes she has over 9,000 miles on the TrailBlazer and her tires look almost new. :auto:
