Swapped on snow tires at 87160 miles. Unfortunately I did not log when I put the summer tires on. but it was probably around 6,000 miles on summers this year, and only 1,000 or so miles on these snow tires from last season. Next year will need to replace the Hankooks for sure.

The engine under-cover had gotten all torn up when we drove to CA so I replaced it with a RockAuto part. It was "CAPA certified" which I now understand to mean "cheapest piece of plastic crap we can make" and it barely fit. I had to buy some new plastic fasteners as well. Total cost $80.59 shipped instead of about $300 from the dealer, plus $22 for new fasteners.

Nicked a curb which cut the sidewall of one of the Nokian snow tires pretty bad. No replacements available and they had seen a good life (5.5 seasons and were getting pretty loud) so had some Blizzak WS90s installed in stock 225/55/17 size. Approx 20,7xx miles on the Nokians. Odo 80,504 at time of change. Also had the tire shop fix a nail in one of the summer tires at the same visit. Discount Tire beat Costco's price at only $715.08 installed.

Future note: use PE01-14-302A or B, not "MV" for value line, and not the 1WPY-14-302 which is smaller. Though the 1WPY is still a good Mazda filter if necessary.
