Worst tyre I ever had in terms of wear was Rainsport 3. Lasted 5000 miles on Sean.
You named your car 'Sean'? Cute.

You need more rubber to wear through. What are the biggest, widest, deepest treadiest ones you can get? Winters?
Funny you should say that - I went for a compromise and ordered a set of All Seasons.. Vred Quatracs to be precise. Theory being in my tiny mind they might be a harder compound. Also the rears are at about 3mm, so will get them done with a matching pair before the winter and I should be set for the pathetic winters the South East gets smile

Thanks for the advice gents.
I'm not sure where the logic came from that a tyre which needs to remain soft to grip at freezing temperatures would be generally "harder", but good luck with that and let us know how you get on smile
