I did that kind of journey every weekend for 5 years, 2 of those on a boxeye. I went from Sailsbury to Blackpool on a Friday, then back again on Sunday. 500 mile round trip. 60% on motorways.
My back tyre generally lasted 8-10 weeks before it was useless. In the winter I got a week or so more out of it.
I always used s/t tyres, rarely a matching pair as I like to try different makes.

Stop polishing it and ride the bloody thing!!
