    I've got 37k on my '06 and just measured the tread depth, a little less than 8/32 left. I think I'm good to go to 60k.

    Eccopia EP442 @44/42psi

    Suggest you go to Harbor Freight and get a inexpensive air compressor and diy.

    To the OP, which Ecopia did you get? "Ecopia" is not a specific tire.

    My EP422s with 18k have plenty of tread, not even half way. I drive in Buffalo NY climate and run stock pressure 33/35.
