Gravel drive and all seasons tyres

[Cali Phillip]

I have 4 patches of depleted gravel on my drive, exactly where the Cali goes.
Anyone else have this issue ?
Didn't have it with summer or winter tyres.

Ha ha I dont think so, wondering about four paving slabs. Currently rake the gravel back.

Probably the tyre tread picking up the gravel.
Finer gravel or coarser gravel or, as you mentioned, paving slabs.

Is this the difference between tyres with grip and tyres without…

 

[Cali Phillip]

Yes they are grippy for sure, impressively so and wearing well, 8k and 5-5.5mm left on fronts, hoping to wear those out before winter so got a good deep tread all round

Head scratching??

Is there a separate thread about the 2 parallel stripes of gravel on the road in front of said drive?
Or a you tube video of a Cali dancing around like a figure skater due to gravel stuck in the tread?

Age ha ha

Sounds like either two paving slab strips or regrade and somehow bind the gravel.
any experts or folk with experience on this ?
