ZMANALEX Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 My daughter got 30,000 + out of her Continentals on her Qashqai, but I did swop them round for her at every service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rock_Steady Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 i take it this is not a tracking issue then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ekona Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 TYRES FFS FWD/FWD-biased turbo scrabble wagon? Sounds about right tbh, if you're a particularly aggressive on getting the power down. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beavis Posted December 14, 2016 Author Share Posted December 14, 2016 TYRES FFS Google chrome questioned it so i went for the other option 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes i did think about doing this Alex but left it too late. i take it this is not a tracking issue then?

Car is a 65 plate You're assuming the tracking was right from the factory, or that you didn't knock something out within the first week...

brillomaster Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 if it was tracking they'd likely be bald on one of the shoulders. i'm going with fwd scrabblewagon being at fault, conversely the rear tyres will go for 50,000 miles cos all they do is hold the rear of the car up.

un1eash Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 Got around 15k miles from the michelins on our old Juke Nismo and they had about 3mm left, ive heard the contis are alot worse barely seeing 10k miles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hairyman68 Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 I've just put my winter tyres on only to find my Hancook on the rear are down to the limit..only done 8000 if that..and no I don't drive it like I stole it either...just think poor soft compounds...
