I've had disappointing tire wear while having owned mine. I drive 30k freeway miles a year on my commute. I've done so for 24 years and am accustomed to 50-60K on a set of tires .

I have a hard time getting 35K on my E300 and I'm pretty easy on tires, brakes, etc.
Check, check and check.

Smooth this morning, and then the balance rotation and "wubba wubba wubba". Taking it to another shop tomorrow.

The wear is really weird. Two tires are like new. Passenger front is worn on outside otherwise is fine and passenger rear is worn evenly down to wear marks. It just looks like it's been driven for 60k miles even though it has only 17k miles on it. Have been finding accounts of people having to replace Contis after only 16k-25k miles with average to easy driving.
