Cooper tires
Have a 2020 GLE350. Have 16000 miles. My factory installed Cooper tires are down to 4mm on the front and 3mm on rear. Anyone experiencing this type of wear? Never owned Coopers before.

I had 20"ers on my 2020 GLE450. I was impressed with the Cooper's performance in varied conditions, and very grippy in more aggressive driving, but they didn't seem to show abnormal wear at 3,000 miles when traded. Maybe 1/32"+.
The Coopers you have are MO (Mercedes co-developed) and should meet their standards.
Question for you - is the wear mostly on the inside of the tread, from the negative camber?
That's a lot of wear, and time to begin shopping for replacements.
With my driving style, on W164 and 166 ML's, I get between 25 and 30,000 miles on all the tires I've had, about 180,000 miles in total. I don't like the long-mileage-guaranteed tires because they just don't grip well.

Just as an additional data point, I have the Bridgestone Alenza 20" and they are at 4MM after 22,000 miles of mostly highway driving. I think I will replace with another set, just for simplicity, not many options that have the MO designation..
