They reccommended replacement due to the tread. I haven't checked it myself, but if 20000 is a reasonable replacement time for urban driving, I expect they're right.
The slow leak issue was a different garage; a tire was low less than two weeks after I had filled them, so I asked them to look at it. Their verdict was replacing the pressure sensor due to a slow leak around it.
