heidi tyre wear
just came home from france yesterday and after 5500 miles my k60 on the back is down on the TWI ,s (1.6mm), the front still looks like it has another 5000 miles in it.
to be fair I must say that i have done about 2000 miles on motorways @80with luggage on them and it looks like that's where they suffered the most wear. the soft compound seems to get very warm and you can see after a while how the edges on the blocks get round....they did recover when we travelled at a easier pace on the bendy roads again. ........over all I'm happy with the performance and i already ordered a replacement because i never had a tyre lasting as long a this one.
IMO they are a really good compromise for people who go off-road sometimes and drive all year round but on the down side .. the price has crept up a bit since last time
