Conti's

I'll be getting a new set of tires next week for my '05 V10 CC 4x4. I was wondering had anyone matched my mileage of 57,000+ on the 18 inch conti's that came stock on the truck. Most people I talk to only seem to get 20-25,000 miles on their tires. I'll be getting another set of the conti's from my ford dealer because he beat everybody's price that I checked.

FWIW, I have 54k on my '05 F350 DRW. The rear tires are original and are a little more than 50% worn. I replaced the fronts at 40k, but they were much better than the rears. I like having newer tires on the front and will be using the original fronts on the back in 20k miles or so. The reason I got new front tires was due to a puncture - I don't like fixed steering tires.

I'm generally happy with the Conti tires, but I don't like that they are the only choice of road tires for the size that Ford changed to for '05 - 17 inch. They have preformed very well last winter, but I hardly drive without the trailer. I did go through a bunch of snow...
