A while back I collected and posted data on the remaining tread depth on our 2014 RTL front Kenda tires. This was after reading a number of posts about what others were seeing on theirs and I was shocked at the short lifespan being quoted. AGAIN.....this is just FYI on my part.....just actual data on my tires....no intent to re-start any pro or con discussion about the brand or construction. I think that's been done enough and I WILL be shifting to other tires too, when I feel these have gone as far as they can. I collected this second set of numbers today, mainly to help me decide/"sell the idea" of putting street tires on NOW, because "tread life" was almost gone. 
To be clear, I would change today, if I thought they were unsafe for us. We certainly don't ride the way or distances or speeds or roads that some of you do, but we ride as often as we can and have now become "users" of highway speeds for long periods of travel when necessary.
So, for anyone interested, (IF I didn't do the attachment - PDF - correctly please advise how), here are the current tread depths on our original 2014 Kenda fronts. View attachment tire measurements 081318.pdf
