Question Mileage on stock Bridgestone?

Looks like I will need to find some tire around the 25k mark. What kind of mileage are you getting on yours?

In the same boat, I have 23k and tires are almost to the wear bars. To add insult to injury I just discovered a screw in one of the tires and its too close to the side wall to repair

Mine have about 23K and have started making too much noise. They should be getting replaced this weekend with Toyo Proxes 4s - ordered then last week.

At 22k 2 of them were down to wear marks. Other 2 getting close. Replaced with PS2s. I rotated the ES42s every 7-8k.

That's what I ordered (245/45/17) and they came in today. They'll be installed on Saturday.

Ordered the BFG KDWS in 245-45-17,
the tread pattern is not as pretty as those Toyos but betting the ability to get around in snow will be a bit better.

I got about 25k on mine. Replaced with Pirelli P Zero Nero. Should have done it long ago, but couldn't bring myself to waste tires.
