Round #3 for 19.5 tires. Where have all the KM's gone?

Present truck had 22,500 kms when I bought it in 2006, put a 4000lb + hard side with slide TC and after a really rough trip to the Baja, decided to go with 19.5's. Picked up the present TC 5 years ago...

Not on 10+ years old tires.
Retread or re-grove usually applies to cutting deeper groves in existing rubber and is done only on commercial tires design for the procedure.
I think you had recap in mind, that adds new rubber with tread to old tubes.
