Hi all, just a quick question.
I got my used S3 a year and a half ago and changed all four tyres last March. I went for Goodyear F1 Asymetrics having read good things about them on here, and haven't been disappointed.
I have done about 13,000 miles on them since and they are down to 3-4 mm all round. I was expecting the fronts to wear down faster than the rears, but they are wearing evenly. Is this common? (I guess at least it shows my Haldex is working )
Don't get me wrong, I'll be happy with 15k on a set of tyres (shame that's just over a year's driving though!) but was hoping to not have to buy them four at a time.
As for replacements, I've read that the Michelin PS3 is not actually a direct replacement of the PS2 and that a new Michelin Cup (?) tyre is due out soon which will be the PS2's replacement - can anyone confirm this?
Cheers
Pete
