Great deal if you need new tires but my tires on my 2002 Honda Accord SE are still going strong.
How often do you usually have to change tires?
Depends. If you have softer, "high performence" tires anywher from 10K to 30K miles. If you have the stock tires from your Accord, you probably can get close to 40K to 50K on them. Higher mileage tires typically are harder and offer less traction. You can check your threadwear rating, its printed right on the tire. I'm guessing yours is close to 400 or higher. Obviously the higher the number, the longer the tires "should" last. You can only get optimal miles out of your tires with proper maintainence, including check tire pressures often (while the tires are cold) and frequent rotation of your tires.
