Reminds me of my friend who saw a woman at the gas pump putting 87 octane in her BMW 330 ... he went up to her and ask (in a nice way) does she have any idea what she's doing, and I think her response is "gas is gas" or something stupid along that line.
Hitting 56k with a set of tires is nothing to brag about unless they're on a Prius. I'd imagine they'd be extremely bald way pass the warning bars. You'll be a real treehugger when you drive by a sand/oil/wet patch on the road.
