    90% of them are too big & have shrubs & stuff. The small flat ones i do drive over though.

    I think roundabouts do contribute to the wear and rotating tyres is the only way to address it. The other thing is the Dunloops are soft in the sidewall.
    We are on the other side of the canal so even more r/abouts. Yep the grandcraps are shite. I used to have road bikes up until about a year ago and used to love going for rides out and around your place, so many nice twisties between my place and yours MJ maybe you should get a bike to visit your mate lol.
    Next time you're up this way we should catch up for a beer mate.

    Cheers

      Ditto, some of the roundabouts need flattening out!

        Sounds like a plan. Anyway wearing out the Dunloops isn't bad at all. You get to put tyres on instead!

          hey Andrew, very interesting the difference between the same vehicles/tyre size and wear.
          I was running 35-36 wear was ok.
          for one set of tyres i ran 40 p.s.i (save fuel? no) 10,000klms 6 months saw them gone from 14mm all over to 12mm at the sides and 10mm in the centre area.
          I put a set of atz4ribs on 7 months ago. done around 15,000klms at 37-38psi same thing, 14.5mm new, no 10mm in centre and 12 mm at sides.
          I dont know what some are doing different but it doesnt make sense, im getting overinflation wear and you are not???
          i have a new set of bfg a/t on now they are 37psi, im considering dropping them. id like to see even wear.

          any ideas how the results differ so much?

          p.s i do inflate them more with load etc.


          I have BF's on mine and run all fours on 35....... Works well......even wear.
