Changed mine at 4/32 which clocked in at 20,000 miles. Exclusively DD use, although my DD is about 60 miles of twisty backroads. I could have ran them longer, but I couldn't stand the way they handled wet roads.

Im down to the wear bars at 38k. Lots of canyon runs, an autox, and some abandon warehouse drifting.

This is a pretty useless post. OP is not asking how long your tires lasted on your car, he's asking how much tread life people have gotten.

I've put 3500 miles and still at a full 9/32nds .. to be on topic.

9.5k miles of normal and hard driving and still at least 50 percent left, apart from the outsides (need more negative camber). I have the Bridgestone Potenzas btw

21k and still around 50% that's 4 autoX, and 4 trackdays, and a couple of drift sessions, but on very smooth concrete.. Think parking garage type concrete.. A few mountain runs.. But as you can see I'm not fast lol.. 1:51 I think at big willow.. Best a 1:33's at streets.. Usually around 1:35's and 4-5 secs off the best guys at the autox

No measurement, but I'm at 18k and it looks like I have tons of meat left (50% maybe?). I do drive the car hard, but I put 70 highway miles on every day, so I get a lot of miles with not much wear...

EDIT: pulled out a tread gauge. Original tread depth is 9.5/32; my fronts were down to 6/32, rears 4/32. I find that pretty amazing for a claimed 240 treadwear. Just goes to prove that treadwear is not really a number you can compare between brands; my 180 treadwear Kumho XS (8/32) was down to practically nothing after 14k on my Miata. I wonder how long my new 200 treadwear BFG Rivals (7/32) will last...
