Quick update in case anyone else is thinking 'tyres' soon for their
Ibiza......
My fronts will need replacing in a couple weeks especially after yesterdays
spirited sunny afternoon country blaaaast.
Bit of back ground,- My pd130 is running 171 brake and has the 312mm brake set up so tyres don't have it easy, most of my miles are Motorway but I do push when going around roundabouts.
So far the Pilot Sport 3's on the front have done 28,000 miles and I reckon the rears will be good for at least 35k.
They rarely break traction wet or dry and even in the snow last March and a couple weeks back they performed well for a Summer tyre.
I'm slightly obsessive so the car is well tracked, wheels are balanced every 6 months, I'm out with the pressure gauge every couple weeks and as a result they have worn perfectly across each tyre.
I was thinking of trying the Sportmax RT's next time to see whether they are quieter or not (they are a little cheaper too) but do you know what?
If it ain't broke why bother trying to fix it?
If you love your car as much as I love mine and want it to drive as well as it can, I'd say Michelin Pilot Sport 3' are where it's at.
