    what kind of mileage is everyone getting on their stock Michelins?

    I just turned 34,000, tread is worn and they need to be replaced. Alignment and everything else is in check, just normal tread wear.

    Not that I am too upset been wanting to get new tires but couldn’t justify the expense when there was good rubber.

    This is just forcing me to make a quicker decision on wether I do Bilsteins up front or the Toytec 3/1 lift.

    That has been my experience with stock tires, not on Tundra but other vehicles. If you get 40k you're doing pretty good.

    Just turned over this yesterday, look like I have about 35% thread left.

    I too could justify spending when these are still good, but I can’t wait to replace them, I have some rock warrior wheels in storage that are going on once these are done.

    The stock tires on my old 2012 got switched out at 45k for bigger tires. Probably could have gotten another 5k or so out of them.

    I never understand why people don't get much out of their tires...I always get about 60,000. Driving habits, I guess? IDK?

    Lots of things factor. Driving habits, types of roads you drive on, road conditions, tire maintenance (rotations, air pressure), highway vs. city/short distance, tire compound.

    I'll be glad when my factory tires wear out. I have the Bridgestone and i hate them. My 05 Tundra came with the same tire and i only got about 25,000 out of those.

    I don’t understand any of this. What do you mean you don’t like the tires? How can you not like tires? I have never driven or ridding in a vehicle and had any sense of not liking the tires. What does that even mean?

    I am not being sarcastic...I really don’t understand. How do you become attuned to knowing what to like and not like about a tire? I mean if the tire lasts for a long time, then what is not to like? The look? Okay, but you hate them? I don’t get it.

    43,000 and there's 10K left. 2017 4WD stock Terra Grapplers. They've been great.

    I had 65k Miles on my 2016 when I traded it in. Factory Michelins still had close to half tread on them. I rotated at every oil change. A buddy of mine that sells tires told me when I bought the truck initially, that they would probably go 100k if I paid attention to rotation. he may have been right.

    2018 version has the same kind, hoping for as good of experience. I like nice new larger tires as much as the next guy, but hate forking out the cash for them until I absolutely have to!

    There are lots of reasons for that. Some are noisier than others, wet traction sucks, roads driven on. Someone in the country driving on back roads is going to have a different option about a stock highway tires than someone in the city. I had a stock set of Bridgestone duelers on my wife’s SUV that would spin every time you accelerated from a stop. And my wife drive so damn slow, so I know she’s not gunning it.
