The stock Bridgestones have been fine for me, though I will probably also change them out for Michelin Defender LTXs when they've worn out. I live in a relatively rural area in the Northeast, and experience inclement weather, rutted roads, etc. I'm pretty conscious about HOW I drive in certain conditions, however. At 15,000 mi, I have 9/32" tread remaining. Many people change them out immediately because they want a more aggressive looking tire, though admittedly there are a good deal of folks on here needing different tires for purpose built vehicles.
