I just put a new set of BFG AT's on and have some pictures to show (sadly i only had my crash camera not my good one) I ran my previous set for a little over 74000 KMs in 5 years, it's a little hard to make out since the camera is soooooooo bad but i still had a fair ways to go to hit the wear bars. That was just the first tire they took off not necessarily the best, the best i have on as a spare if anyone wants better pics of tread depth measurements.

The new one

The 74000+kms old one

That's pretty good distance, Cobra. How much air do you keep in them? How frequently did you rotate?
