Do you think I have around 15k for the rears or the front? The front tires definitely seem to be in pretty good shape, but to me the rear looks a bit worn out. Is it a good idea to drive until the wires show up?

you might want to show the penny picture from the side not from an angle, that'll help determine the thread life a lil better..

Are the wear bars even with the rest of the tread? That would mean its definately time for a replacement.
