I have 34 000 kms on the clock and have noticed the front are wearing more than the back, is this your case as well?How many K's did you get out of the SP3000's?thanks.PS also keen to know if anyone is using bridgestone S03's and what they think of em.

After 37,500km of driving all 4 are gone. The wear is relatively even front to back, but I noticed the the insides of all 4 tyres are more worn than the outside half??????So, what 18" tyres are you guys running, and would you recommend them?

The fronts were still in reasonably condition. Got 2 new tyres and put them on the front, and the original front to the rears. After 5000klms on the rear it was time for new ones again.Love the Dunlops though, they're an awesome tyre. Have had Sumitomos and out of desperation NanKangs. Never again for either of them. Got dunlops back on now, and about to get a pair of Goodyear Eagle F1's.Adam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you light up the rears a bit they should even out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
