Post up a pic of your take-offs, I have personally never heard of a tire going that long. My Dunlop was down to the wires in 8K...

your car tire tire should run to 50-60K with ease if you keep doing what you're doing.

Update on my previous post. I had 27,000 miles on that Yoko 185/60/16 when I changed it for a Michelin Assurance 195/65/16.
I noticed the right side of the tire was worn down to the wear bars but the left side had a ways to go.

I got 35K out of my Yoko Avid Ascend. Mostly 2 up on the Texas Farm to Market and few dirt roads.
I will tell it was time cus it was an old-school Mexican Racing Slick when I got it pulled and a new one on

Yes, I went back with the same tire had too good of luck with it.

As requested.. When I would lean into corners, I would notice a vibration, that was caused from the tread wear. The trailing edge of the contact pad would be shorter than the leading edge of the next contact pad..
