Still on the originals, approching 20,00mi. One more trip to the Dragon and they will be history. Fronts and rears are just about the same as far as tread depth goes.

can someone post in detail on how to check for tread life and % remaining.

i'm at 12.5k and stock ap2 tires. i've been feeling slight fishtailing every time the road is wet from rain. also, if i get only rear tires, can i mismatch different tire brands? for those who order from tirerack, if you get a tire place to do it, how do u get the tires to the shop?
