Tyre choice advice

[Ocean Spirit]

Thanks for your reply T6 POE
It does seem to be the Turanzas play a big part .

My theory is that 'Summer' tyres are designed to have minimal rolling resistance which to me translates as low straight ahead grip. Also looking at the tread there is little actual contact with the road surface.
From that I deduce that on front wheel drive only Cali's there is a normal tendency to spin the tyre causing rapid wear.
All season & winter tyres have more side to side tread giving better surface grip and less of a tendency to spin giving a longer life/mileage span.. Commercial tyres also fit this category.

just a theory but...

I have the Volkswagen supplied tyres and am at 10kmiles.
The fronts will need replacing shortly. Down to about 3mm
