I just replaced one of my M/T's under the "tire protection" (side wall damage) and I had about 20% wear with a little over 10,000 miles on them. That should give me over 50k tread life which I think is great for such an aggressive tire.

Yep, except that I won't drive on tires with zero tread. I hope you wouldn't either. My point was how many miles I have gotten out of my tires, not how many more I may get out of them. As you know, 2 of my tires have 3/4 tread on them and 2 of them have a bit less than 1/2 tread. Now I have to decide whether I'm going to buy 5 new 33" KM's or just buy 2 new 32" KM's in September / October ... hhhmmm.
