Seems like no matter what tires I use, I only get about 30-35k miles out of my tires, even when tires are rated for much more, like 60k.

Wondering if I am just hard on tires or others are seeing the same thing?

I get the tires rotated and balanced every other oil change (6k mile rotations, tire shop does it for free) and alignment always done when new tires go on.

Front end is solid, I always change parts like ball joints when they wear out.

Tire shop warranties the tires so replacements are cheap, half price, but just wondering what other people are seeing.

I drive about 75% city, 25% highway.

Could be over inflation

My last set of Dick Cepek's lasted me over 60K. What does the wear look like at the end of the tires life and specifically what tires are you using?

TNSean

They wear even, not cupped or the center wore more.

I have used top of line mitchelin ltx, some goodyear and now, since the tires wear out so fast, I just use cheap general grabber tires. They are a p tire, so I am not surprised they only go 30-35k miles but on a cent per mile basis they are way cheaper so worth it.

At 1k miles per year mine dry rot before they wear out. I get 15 years out of a set or 15k miles, whatever comes first lol.

Sounds like my jeep. 2003 model, 14k miles.

Are you sure you're tires are completely worn out when you get new ones? I bought a set of 33's to put on my truck a while ago, and this was 10% to him lol.

Those aren't bad yet lol. 40,000 on my Goodyear Silent Armors and they are all around a 1/8". Yea, I'll never due Goodyear again. Michelins for sure IF I can get them in the correct size.

Last set measured 2/32 when I replaced them. They wouldn't warranty them otherwise.

I usually get my tires rotated/balanced every oil change (5000 miles) for free from discount. I don't have problems getting the suggested mileage out of tires and I'm by no means easy on tires
