How long did your OEM tires last and what replacement you chose?

First I am using my car for commute only. Lots of highway miles. Not looking for super exciting performance etc. So I feel this question is more like a normal maintenance question, instead of a performance related issue which fits tire-and-wheel forum better.

Now after 5-1/2 years and 42k miles, my factory tires have about 5/32 inches left. Given the tread and the age of the tires, I am ready to put a new set on whenever a good deal shows up. So I am wondering which tires are the top choices to replace the OEM ones?

I typically pick one that is a good balance between price and performance. So often times I end up with a Continental tire. This time the top choice seems to be Continental dws06. It's $132 a piece on discount tire direct. $528 a set. With some promotion, I think it's $428 after tax and shipping, but before installation.

What do you think about this choice and I am open to other suggestions. Thanks!
