18" OEM Bridgestone RFT's - the wear pattern is the same on all 4, with inside and outside threads ar 4/32" and the middle at 6/32". I asked the tire shop if they were underinflated, which would account for this but they said that it wouldn't ( I keep them at 33psi), no further explanation. What is your experience? I think I will soon need to replace them.

I am at 21,000 miles only, 4/32" is at the sides it's still 6/32" in the middle. Is yours wearing evenly? Check the depth at the sides, not just in the middle. I do notice the dealership inflates them to 35" which makes for a slightly harder ride.

I was under the impression that the service technician would measure it everywhere and the least tread depth is represented in the inspection. May be I should stop by a tire shop to see if the wear is uneven. Anyways, the burning question is are you going to replace the run flats with the traditional when it is time?
