Not so apparent from the outside looking at the tire tread.
I used to go thru a rear tire in 4-6 weeks and a front tire in about twice that time. Nowadays, I ride 150-200 miles per week. If the bike sits for weeks, with flatted tubes, it could get "boogered" up. The original Orange Sealant dried up pretty quick compared to the Endurance formulation that I now use. Sorry I could not be more precise. Temperature is also a factor
Had flat tire hell last year riding in the same 150-200 range, very unusual. What are you using for sealant now?.
