I'm talking about a measurement over the wear bars and not to the bottom of the tread. If the wear bars are flush with the surface they are long gone.

If you have that over the wear bars you have driven it like a little old lady, so I doubt the size is over the wear bars.

The Michelins PS 2's on the rear of the SRT are shot as well, they were down to the wear bars when I got it at 19,500 miles.

Don't look at the outside tread area, look on the inside that's where the most wear takes place.
