FEH EcoPlus Tire Treadwear
Someone with a new FEH says his Tire Tread Depth is 9mm.
My tires with 20,000 miles are at 8mm.
Someone with 40,000 miles has original tires with 7mm of tread left.
If this is not a fluke, 1mm per 20,000 miles is pretty darn good.
Can some other people please post mileage and tread depth?
Thanks.
8mm = 5/16"

Re: FEH EcoPlus Tire Treadwear
C'mon guys and gals. Any more tire depth data?
On other boards I've heard 1mm of tread wear for each 10,000 miles to 1mm of tread wear for 20,000 miles.
That puts these tire's life at 75,000 miles to 150,000 miles! But we need more data.
Thanks!

I also have 8mm at 20K.
Some tires have softer compounds as the tire wears down so the wear rate is not linear. We still need more data.
