Yes, at 44k the OEM tires were definitely due for a replacement.
The PLUS version of the Ecopia are supposed to last a lot longer than
the OEM (non-plus) versions. [The rubber is harder or something....the
cost was very close to the same, so I went with the plus versions...]
Only time/miles will tell for sure......

I got barely 20k off Ecopia. In fairness, I rotated a little late, and figured
a brand-new car shouldn’t need an alignment. Still…
Michelin Energia fared a little better.

I replaced the stock Ecopia's (non-plus from Nissan) at 44k miles on my Leaf
with Bridgestone Ecopia EP 422 PLUS (which are supposed to have a longer life)
but so far I've only put another 8K on the tires, so I can't say if they are
any better than the stock ones...
