About 40,000. But I am sure the failures were due to my own incompetence rather than
normal wear. I had acquired the car recently, and it was my first experience with
non-steel wheels. I believe that I undertightened the lugnuts on one wheel. The loose
wheel caused a couple of studs to sheer. Soon afterward the first bearing failed, then
the second.
