Is anyone out experiencing tire problems? I have a touch over 15,000 miles and the Bridgestone tires need to be replaced. I was told by Bridgestone the tires are supposed to last for upto 23,000 miles. Well, 15,000 is almost up there isn't it.



Please comment.


I had two Lexus ES models, and both required replacement of OEM tires at around 17,000 miles despite careful rotations, proper inflations, etc.

The replacement tires, Continental Extreme Contact DWS, lasted much, much longer.

The Bridgestones that came on my IS 250 with 15k miles look like the front tires (which are smaller than rear on the IS) are about 25% worn. The rear tires still look almost new. I don't drive aggressively at all.

To clarify, I didn't buy the car with 15k miles on the tires, I bought it new and it now has 15k.
