Tyres wearing way too fast on Edition 30!
pudding:
So there really is no strange steering behaviour, no peculiar wear patterns, no rumbling bearing noises.....nothing?
What the actual in that case! I think we need to see pictures of said tyres as this is very odd!
Clarkj93:
Yeah makes no sense... pretty much every scenario that would wear out tyres faster would produce an irregular wear pattern.
FatWelshBoy:
Stock power? My F1 Supersports are just about done after nearly 4k but I do drive it fairly hard and ran an APR stage 1 map for a little while which really chewed through tyres due to its awful throttle mapping. The fact that I do literally zero motorway miles also means I'll see higher wear than most.

I have no problems with my tyres which seem to last about 12 months, but hers need replacing VERY regularly. The current pair of front tyres now need replacing after only 3 months and she only does short trips locally. She usually has Eagle F1s but since someone told her they are a soft tyre, she has fitted a set of Khumos (which are now already on the legal limit!!). Both her usual garage and the tyre fitter can't find anything wrong with the wheel alignment or tracking and have suggested she must be driving too aggressively. Now, granted she is quite a spirited driver, but she's not wheel spinning out of every junction and has deliberately been driving carefully but to no avail.
Any ideas?

Swap cars and see what happens to the tyres after 3 months
