Default Mileage on Continental DWS tires?

I have put about 37k moderately-driven miles on my Continental DWS tires and they need to be replaced. The D and the W are still showing, but the S is worn away. Seeing as it's winter, I would like to replace them before the big snows hit.

Is this normal mileage for this tire? I don't do jackrabbit starts, slam on the brakes or take corners on two wheels. Has anybody gotten much longer mileage out of these tires?

I just replaced mine and got 40K out of them. Same, D and W still visible, but some uneven wear on the inside of the rear tires.

Same, replaced at 38k and did alignment to keep that negative rear camber in check.

37k on all season tires is about what you can expect for normal wear. I have gotten as much as 45k on a previous set, but that was stetching it a bit.
