I am lucky to get 30k out of my Michelins. Not the tires fault, the Jap truck has a touchy first gear. My brother just text'd me and said he is at 60,474 miles on his 09 4x4 chevy truck and still on the original tires. With tread still showing.

Sounds like my Dad he has 70k on his 09 dmax and still on the original front tires, he has a programer on it so the backs only lasted about 30k. My last truck had 21k miles on it when it was totaled and the stock Michelins were well over 50% tread life. I'm on my 4th truck since 08 so I've had one long enough to buy tires.
I've got about 35K on my Michelin LTX/MS2's on my Titan and they still look damn near new. I'm betting I'll get 80-90k out of them, but I also check the pressure weekly and rotate every oil change.
On my 12 GT, I got about 17k out of my Pirelli PZeros. On my 09 GT i got alomost 30k out of them, but it didn't have as much powa!.

Keep in mind, most tires on new vehicles are rated for low mileage. 30,000, 36,000 or something like that. Michelin, and most other manufacturers have low mileage and high mileage rated tires. Also, all tires are not created equal. I got over 70,000 miles out of my Michelin LTX tires on the Expedition.

Another aspect is the type of surfaces the tire drives on.

truth.
I got 65ish out of the last set on my truck. The rears were getting thin, and one of the fronts seperated. oddly, that was the same story on the prevous set.

i have roughly 30k miles on my toyo open country AT tires on my work truck. i would say they have about 25% left on them. i dont pay for them but i would suspect i could get another 10-15k miles out of them. not bad for a 3/4 ton truck that travels on gravel rock roads every day
Got 38-39k miles on my 09 GT and still has the stock tires. Tread looks almost new and still has about 90% of the nips on the sides edges of the tread. It is slow and I drive like a 90 year old grandpa on the way to get coffee.
