Well, I should have replaced them some time ago, they are practically threadbare. It is actually my wife's car, and she is very conservative in her driving habits -- that is why we got as many miles as we did. I will say that I have read posts on this board from folks who say they have gotten far less from their Eagle RS-As than we did. So I guess I shouldn't complain too loudly.

I have approximately 45,000.

Thanks for the information. That is very helpful. Are the Alenzas you purchased "H" or "V" rated?

I have a 2004 FWD RX330 with the 18" wheels. I was told recently by my Lexus dealership that I needed new tires. My Lexus came equipped with the OEM Goodyear Eagle RS-A tires. My Lexus dealership is recommending the same tires for my car, but I don't want to put the Eagle RS-As back on my car, as I was a little disappointing in their tread life. I have researched 235/55/18 tires, and it is clear there are very few choices out there. As a result, I have a couple of questions: 1. Does anyone have a strong recommendation for a tire for my car? I am looking primarily for good tread life. I do not drive in the snow. 2. Does anyone see a problem with me purchasing a lower rated tire (like an "H") to improve tread life (if it would improve tread life at all)? 3. I have read good reviews on the Bridgestone Alenza H/Ls, but don't know if those reviews are legitimate. Can anyone comment? Thanks for any information any of you might be able to provide.
