    hey all, just checking in to see what type of mileage you are seeing on your tires. I am at 16k and touching the wear indicators. Rotated with every oil change so I have somewhat even wear. The centers are a little lower than the outer, am running ~40 psi when warmed up.
    Thanks

    I have 25k miles and am not hitting the wear indicator yet. I figure I have another 10k or so miles. I rotate at every 5k miles as they is when i get my oil changed. Overkill maybe.

    38 psi too. It's on the door and I don't care to hear an argument like before how you should run what's on the tire.

    Key is mid oil change rotation 3500 or 5000. In the Florida heat, they are recommending 7500. Either way, I did the mid cycle rotation and all was good till last 7500 where I got lazy, and I wrecked the front tires to a point, end of life is about 30k.

    I’m at 21k, and have rotated/etc. the dealer replaced 2 of my tires for free at 12k because one had a defect, and I told them it had to be replaced in pairs . Now, I have one bald tire, and one that is touching wear marks, the strangest tire wear I’ve ever seen. Waiting to hear if I’m getting 2 more! Wish me luck

    Purchased through 4Wheel Parts on warranty so with 5k rotation, they cover repairs or replace if necessary to 45k.
    A little more noise, but very close to K02 on highway.
