Exclamation Is200t tires

A few days back i was driving home and my car hit a wet spot in the road, immediately after I lost complete control of the car and it began fishtailing with the traction light coming on and off. I thought to myself right after that it must be the tires. does anybody know how long these tires take to wear down so i can convice myself to change them? they are the stock bridgestone turanzas . has anybody else experienced something like this?

I didn't even get 10,000 miles out of them. Mine were shot by 7500~.

I got about 20k on them and they were about 35% left. Pretty nice tires, but I missed my continental DWS.

That's crazy. I'm at 9300 and still on stocks. How's your driving?

I just replaced my fronts at 18k mainly due to inner wear (there are ton of threads regarding to this on IS and other models). But the rears were fine, maybe be another 10k left on them. Now that I replaced them with Michelin PSS, I can't even pill out.

If you take the wheels off the inner wear is visible since the outer tires look fine. I started to notice the inner wear around 12k miles and the metal started to show little at 18k. It was depends on your driving.
