tyre wear

[nibbles]

Took my LCR in for its 20.000 mile service today,,, no probs except he pointed out my front tyres only have 4 mm tread left I have Eagle F1s , and to be honest i have only done roughly 6.000 miles on them . does this seem about right
Funny thing as well i took it to the stealers and he listed all my mods, as it still has warranty
even the receptionist had to laugh

depends how soft the compund is mate to be honest and how you use them

My front eagle F1's only last 8,500 miles per pair so that sounds about right.

4mm is nothing to worry about is it?
As long as its wearing evenly theres nothing to worry about
Did you put these tyre straight onto the front or were they on the back for a bit?
How close an eye do you keep on your tyre pressure?
This made a big difference to my tyre wear

You boys must have a lead right foot

I used to get 8-10 out of my fronts! 4mm though thats another good 2k!

It's a stage two LCR! I wouldn't expect it to be that kind to your tyres really. It's got to have monster torque.

 

[nibbles]

305 torque
