mine was changed every 10K by the previous owner, and I intend to do the same. The change interval on the dash was set for 12K by the dealership that reconditioned and certified it for CPO. My driving is mostly intermittent highway. Some city, but not much distance.

I change every 4-5k miles spending on how I'm driving it. Definitely not going according to the service status mileage.

I live in MA. I actually just installed Vredestin Wintrac Pro winter tires on the stock 20" rims. Not too many options for our platform on the stock wheels so I gave them a try from Tire Rack. They look and ride great! Not too loud, comfortable and have great cold dry and wet pavement performance. They perform well when it's warmer and don't get too mushy, but excel in the sub 40 deg temps. Turn in feel is sharp, and predictable. They aren't to the level of the Michelin PSS or a max performance summer tire, but they are excellent for winter rubber. They were also quite solid in the rain, which is always hit or miss with winter tires.

I haven't used them in snow yet but the reviews I read before buying suggested they'd be quite good up to the deep stuff.
