Hi Everyone,
Ive just had mt 7500 mile service and Ive noticed my tyre wear.
Front to 4.5mm
Rear's 2mm
Is this normal, I thought the front's would go first, due to having power and steeing forces on them ?
Anyone else had this?????

Just a thought, did the dealer swap them over at the service?

My fronts 'went 3K before my rears (15k) so to speak, this is the usual form i believe.

My also be worth checking the geometery!! If it's a new car, it probably hasn't been checked before.

This was the case on mine, and a friends, both were MY99 and both trashed tyres with uneven wear in less than 10,000 miles!
