How many miles from Front tyres

[sb-1]

What does anyone expect mileage wise from a fwd family hatchback front tyres?

[descentia]

Impossible to answer accurately as it depends on what car it is, how you drive, where you live, the tyre manufacturer, the state of the roads, etc etc

Fair enough.
Car in question is a Skoda Scala,12K miles and front tyres will very soon need replacement.

I am in Surrey,so roads are pretty bad!

I am not a slow driver,but not like Lewis Hamilton!

Oh and tyres are Bridgestone 005.

if you are only doing motorway miles then 20-25k should be doable, but urban or country lane stuff , 12 -18k is more realistic.

Unless you have a high powered fwd car, and you punt it down country lanes , then less than 10k.

if you want to save yourself a bit of money in the short term, then you could swap the wheels front to back. I bet your current rears have close to full tread depth.

Sounds like I am being a bit optimistic then!

[Smint]

Yep sounds about right, personally i rotate anyway with a view to replacing all 4 at the same time.

Lol, I remember when I had a Volvo T5 as a company car and worked in Milton Keynes. Got at most 8k from a set of fronts, loved that car!
