O dear - I'll be keeping an eye on these and hold onto the reciept. Having said that Sbroon has had over 12K out of his and he doesn't exactly drive like my granny. Plus my mate with a 300bhp Fiate Coupe has been happy with these for over two years. i.e. the old and new models. I had the old models on the front of my chipped S4 and thought they were ok. But I wasn't that impressed with the wear. I can't remember how many miles I got but 8K comes to mind. We shall see.

Having said all that the real point to this post is the significant improvement in the handling from that of the P-zeros.

Well i'm still running Gooyear F1's, no problems with wear or grip. They've done 13k, and probably good for another 2-3k. I remeber the post about the tires falling, apart but i can't fault them so far will go for the same again when needed. But i have seen that Hankook ventus sport k1o4 as they are correct rating saving £50 per tire but i havent seen any one eles using them so i'll wait and see. If i go for them i'll report on there performance.
But to get back to the original post i agree with the rest of the mob it's sounds very much like your tire are the problem :bowdown: :nogarors4:
