1 year stats

just had the 15,000 miles check in... it only has 11,612 miles on it. but
all of my tires are 6/32
my front breaks are 10mm each
and my rear breaks are 3mm each.

My rear brakes... that's normal right... it just seams like a low number.

That's lots. Drum brakes on a little car start with around 3mm new.
Tires are the most worn. Probably >50% life left.

Nothing. I go from the house w/ the kids. to drop them off at the in laws..
then to work... and to work to home (my husband gets the kids)

I go food shopping once a week... That's it.

I don't know why the tires are wearing out so quickly.

could just be crappy tires. The oem ones aren't rated at all, and are usually just meant to make the car feel good on a test drive. Which brand do you have?
