1.5-2mm left before wear bars on Wintersports?

So my rears have approximately 1.5mm left before they hit the wear bars. Am I fucked? lol. I drive about 800-1000 miles a month. Will I last til April? I don't have any idea how these wintersport 3d's wear... don't really want to order another set of rears now. Any input? Thank you!

If you go easy on them they should last until April before hitting the wear bars, assuming you do not have a lot of snow. Snow tires without good tread depth are not effective in anything other than very light snowfall.
