I have the factory Bridgestone Duelers at 33k, still some decent tread but outside edges are worn smooth. I have 2.5" lift in front and did alignment at same time, but based on wear it can't be right. I will get it corrected before next set of tires. Big fan of Michelin, hoping Costco runs a discount coupon soon.

25,000 on my Bridgestone, after from end got out of alignment and ate insides off before I caught it. Replaced all four with Michelin Defenders.
Got about 39K on my factory skins,, replaced with Bridgestone AT's slightly wider tire. I like em so far.

Maybe I’m not doing enough donuts but my Bridgestones have like 8-9/32s left at 21k miles.

Don't be to mad my Nittos are really showing wear now with only 29,000 on them. While I really liked them when new (they were great on/off road) I'm not impressed by the wear on them and will be replacing the come spring. Most likely with the Toyo OC AT3's

I had Bridgestone straight from the factory and now about 18,400 miles I just had a nail in one of the tires that was on the side of the tire and not repairable. They check the wear on my tires and I thinks 3 tires were at 3/32 and one was at 2/32. My Ranger is a 2019 and I’m not sure if this is normal for stock tires. Obviously I needed new tires and decided to get some Goodyear Wrangler Fortitude. Hope these will last much much longer.
I just bought a new set last month after two years and ~59k miles. Lost two around 30k miles to some stray screws on the road at work. The two original tires still had probably another 10k-20k left on them, but the road noise was getting to be a bit much and I wanted bigger tires regardless. I did a few rotations early on, but life got busy and I did maybe one rotation in the last 30k miles of wear. Some cupping, but overall a nice tread life.

As much hate as the ATMs get, I was actually pretty happy with them. I might feel differently if I didn't have the LT version or lived in a frozen tundra, but I never found them to be lacking on or off road. Might have bought them again if they came in a bigger size. The LT tread was actually pretty aggressive compared to other road-biased ATs.

My Bridgestones were looking worn out at 24K

I went to Nitto Terra Grappler G2's an I've liked them. about 12K on them now an they look like they did the day I had them installed.

Mine are the Ridge Grapplers which I've heard (after I bought them) are common to wear quickly. It's not so much the edges but the while flat area so I'm guessing the heat here doesn't help either.

RETIRED!!!!
I know the Hankook tires get lots of hate. I just added the Eibach coilovers and would like to get taller tires. I currently have 27K on my ATM's and they still have lots of tread left. They ride good, are comfortable and return decent gas mileage. Kind of hard to justify spending money on new tires when these have plenty of life left. Most of my driving is highway. I don't do much off roading, and nothing hardcore at that. We don't get a lot of snow here so I don't have that issue.

I had the same dilemma when In was deciding whether to buy new ones. You do get good mpg with them and for mostly street driving they're good. We go off road often especially out in the desert to shoot so I needed something better than the stock ones. They only had 900 miles so I sold mine on Craigslist which helped ease the pain. I never replaced brand new tires before and joining this forum didn't help! lol

I expect to get 30k-35k on my bridgestone duelers.
Probably get more but I'll be honest I don't plan to rotate them every 5k as I wouldn't mind buying something better later.


The wet traction leaves something to be desired.

A little over 16, 000 miles the Hankooks had to go. I was nervous going into a mid-west winter with the tread depth they had. Also the tires started to be a bit slippery in the wet. I replaced them with Wildpeak AT3W's and upped the size to 265/70/17. So far I like the Wildpeak AT3W.
