How many miles thou?
If you did 1k a year they'd last for ages
My dad, uses Michelin Pilots on his Cav Gsi.. the michy's get 22k miles
He swapped to Toyo's just to try them, and without changing his driving style (pretty steady) he got 7k out of them..
In his opionion the Michelins gripped better as well..

My fave road tyre is the Godyear eagle F1 GSD 3.
But i've found out yesterday/today they're really crap in the snow.
Track wise the Yoko 038R in SS compound are fantastic!

Broster,
What's all this crap about remoulds having the tread fall off?
Absolute rubbish.
They have to pass very strict British Standard tests to be sold in this country.
In 22 years of driving the only tread I've seen in the road has been from lorries, and that is probably from the driver overloading/under-inflating.
Get yer facts right.

Anyone running Yoko AVS Sport? TVR's and Porka's roll out of the factory with them on. They are pretty special. P4UL had them on his Bravo.
