Replaced front with used ones off ebay at 23k miles and then replaced all four at 31K miles with new ones. Stayed with the Dunlop Sport Maxx 20's. The 31K that I got our of the rear tires seems to be the exception rather than the rule from what I've read on this forum.

30k miles is pretty good, the dealer said they only get about 8k miles with the 214s which I thought was rediculous.

We do not drive the x5 too often. About 7k miles a year mostly highway to Fayetteville.

8K is terrible. Alignment would have to be way off or vehicle driven very aggressively. I could have waited even longer to replace the tires as they were not really worn out, but we were getting ready to take a trip and dealer had amazing deal on Dunlops. We don't drive very aggessively and I must have gotten lucky with a good alignment on this car.
