Longest Milage on OE tires

Whats the most amount of miles anybody here has gotten out of there front Tires?
I currently have 103,000 miles on my front tires I think I may have a record . The Passenger tire is worn uneven a little bald on the outside . the driver side tire is worn pretty evenly. I think this is incredable. the back tires wore out at about 65,000 and are due to be replaced again. This time i am gonna have to buy all 6. But I guess I cant complain.

I thought I was doing good.

72,000 miles on all four original tires.

Pretty sure they won't make 80,000 though.

I guess I'm confused as to how you can call them "front" tires on a dually when the 3 tires on each side should be getting rotated in a circular pattern front to back?

I had 79,000 on my original tires. They wore pretty evenly and would have lasted probably a little long if I ran them though last winter. But I didn't want to risk it.
