I think City Grips are a very good tyre and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.

I know nothing about the Pirelli tire - but have been riding a scooter on the Michelin City Grips in all kinds of weather for two years. When these wear out I will use City Grips again.

So... how many miles before one might consider OEM's toast?

The IRC OEM rear tyres wear out around five to eight thousand miles, the fronts can last well over twenty thousand miles.

Is that tread wear or just generally time to go?

The mileages I mentioned are for tread wear.
Any tyre once fitted is good for five years.
