Default Going for the record...

I purchased my MY00 with 43,700 miles on it last December. I had to replace the rear tires but left the front ones that were on there. Now I have 62,000 miles on my car and have not yet replaced any tires!!! I actually checked the back tires today and still have a LITTLE tread left! Just wanted to know what the record for SO2 tires was, I think I might be getting close with 18,300 miles!

I really thought I was doing well with 18,300, it's good to know that I can go a little farther.
