I got over 700 track miles (6 trackdays) and 1500 road miles out of my last PPs (not the 2CT) on my 620ie, the rear was just starting to go square off when it got punctured, the front had several more K left to go. I reckon you'll get 5-6K from a rear and 8-10 from a front of either on the road on an M750. I got 4.5K from my last rear Diabolo (not Rosso) on the thou, front is good for another 4K still.
I've also done similar mileages on all sorts of Bridgestone Battlax and would expect a BT014 to give you similar longevity and feel to a PP 2CT or Diabolo Rosso, being a dual compound.
The Michelins get my vote though, I didn't like D204s at all, especially in the wet.
Always worth remembering that tyres are a very personal choice, ie. what I like won't necessarily feel confidence inspiring for you.
