Anybody happen to remember how many miles you got out of the original tires before requiring replacements? TIA

Dunlops? As many miles as it took to get to the tire store to get them replaced. Awful tire.
 
About 45k. They still had a little life left but I took a nail on the way to work one morning and decided to use that as the impetus to ditch them finally.
 
Got rid of mine at 15,000 miles. Replaced with Michelin defenders.

This is pretty much exactly my situation. The Dunlops still had life left, but I wanted to switch.
 
Im at 40,500 today and shopping for new tires next week. The shoulders are rounding off, even after alignments and balancing.
 
You guys got a lot, the window sticker that came with the car says they may last less than 20,000 miles.

60,658 on the odometer. w/5 tire rotation, each tire had an average of 48,526 miles
Still had life in 'em. They got me up and over the high Sierras during 3 snow storms. Vehicle felt planted as I passed others (including 4x4s, and AWDs) like they were in park. Couldn't have asked any more from OEM tires.
-edited mileage figure to account for 5 tire rotation
