I got the unlocked speed and I'm still on original tires at 28,000 miles. Still have plenty of wear before they need replacing too.

The problem is not stomping on the accelerator, since the car has very effective traction control. The problem is cornering. These are very heavy cars, and cornering is rough on tires even on a light car. So have a bit of fun off the line if it's safe to do so, then corner like a grandma and your tires should last reasonably well.
