Tyre wear
Lo all.
I know this is a silly question, as it depends on how you drive, etc,etc
But my front tyres, Toyo T1-R, are i would guess 0.5mm off the tread wear indicator, and have 'only' done 18,000 miles. Is this about right?
The rear tyres which were fitted at the same time are like 2-3mm away from the indicator.
I knew i should have rotated them front to rear! LOL.
So, how few miles do you get from your tyres?

I wish I could get mine to last that long!
My original Bridgestone RE010's lasted 8000 miles
The Toyos I have been running since last between 10 and 12000. Mine seem to wear pretty evenly but most people say fronts wear more than backs.

My fronts are destroyed 
Toyo's T1-S Used to wear evenly over about 10,000 miles, fronts went bald on the inside within about 1,500 miles after having the geometry changed to different settings. I'll be asking for the settings to be returned at the next service!
