     I agree with John, 8400 isn't enough wear to affect the "ride-ability"

     of the stock Bridgestone.  I was talking more of having say 15 or 20k

     on a nice soft Dunlop for example..

8400 miles on a Bridgerock?  It probably hasn't scuffed the injection

molding nubs off it yet.  My guess is that if you replace it with another

Bridgerock, you probably won't see a difference.
