Anyone got any experience of running a set of theses on their DD?

I have just fitted a set to my 206 GTi, from what I can tell from some brief journeys they seem great on a greasy road. Miles better than the very mid range Avon ZZ3's I swapped them for anyway.

I do about 4 track days per year. I do around 5k a year all in (lucky me getting to walk to work!) what kind of wear rate do you think I can expect? I used to get around 8-10k on the fronts from harder compound tyres, and 50k on the rears!

Cheers.

I've had nearly 8k out of the rears on the MR2 and there's still a few mm of tread left, fronts have got loads of life yet. They don't deal with standing water very well though.

great for track use but wouldnt contemplate using them unless it was spring/summer!
