Mine is just 5000 miles and new.
With the use of the Blizzaks I am still on my stock 19" A23s. I need to measure this weekend but they are getting down there. It is borderline so either this summer or next spring at the latest.
These BF Goodrich ADVANTAGE T/A SPORT LT - SIZE: 225/55R19 appear to have really good ratings

Didn't check the test results performed by TireRack but only mentioned good initial customer reviews with caution.It also performs absolutely dismally in the rain, and I'd never buy them.BFGoodrich Advantage T/A Sport LT 225/55R19 is Crossover/SUV Touring All-Season tire which is fairly new but has been listed in my 2nd comparison table.
Although BFGoodrich Advantage T/A Sport LT is now rated #1 out of 30 in Tire Ratings Charts on Crossover/SUV Touring All-Season tires from TireRack.com which overtook the previous Michelin Premier LTX, but it has only 156K reported miles from customers, comparing to Premier LTX's 7M miles. We shall wait and see.
Based on specs on BFGoodrich Advantage T/A Sport LT, I personally don't like the "700 B A" UTQG, lower 44 psi maximum inflation pressure, and heavier 30 lbs. tire weight.

Just look at that wet pavement stopping distance!
I agree with you the test results are not good in almost EVERY category on BFGoodrich Advantage T/A Sport LT, not just in wet test track!

Replaced tp P7 plus yesterday with about 4/32nd left at 27700 miles.
Too new to say anything concrete but the steering feels lighter and tires seem to be a bit of quieter than my old OEM Toyos.
"LOAD INDEX AND SPEED RATING EQUAL TO OR GREATER THAN THOSE FITTED AS ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT "
Load (weight) - important especially if you load the vehicle close to GVWR .
Speed rating -- not as important (you can lose 10, 20 on the MPH rating); just know that you should keep your speed below 120; also know that if you exceed the speed it is not instant failure it is long term failure mostly due to the heat generated at upper speeds.
I ran into this on my MINI Cooper; I wanted some Michelin tires in a certain aspect ratio, and NOT a run flat -- the speed rating was 15 MPH less than what was called for . Bummer I had to keep it below 120 mph for the daily commute. Costco warned me and that was the end of the conversation, the dealer never once made any mention of them, and the car was serviced/repaired under warranty without issue.
Remember warranty claims refusal must be backed by cause by owner/abuse (it simply can't be oh I see your tires are underspec'd, we aren't gonna cover your brakes). So in the case of tires, I'm not even sure what scenario would "blamed" on under spec'd tires .
