It depends on how you drive. If you drive like I had been driving, there is very little wear on them. Look at the pictures, you'll notice that there are still notches visible on the center tread. On pictures of other tires I've seen with similar or less miles, these notches have completely worn away. I would say they are down maybe 15% from when they are new, which gives me an expected lifespan of 28,333 miles or 25-30k.

On my last car I had three sets of Bridgestone Potenza S-02 (and S-03) PP's with similar treadwear ratings (140, I believe). I got 30-35,000 miles out of each set of those tires.
