Just had an annual check done on my GT4 yesterday and all Ok.However by being a non expert on such matters i need advice on my tyre wear.My car is PCCB Dunlop RM shod and done approx 2500miles.No track days yet as am awaiting to update my insurance cover on 1st year anniversary in a month's time.Anyway here are the tread depths and only slight concern is the increased inner rear tyre wear but very pleased overall and like the Dunlop RM a lot for fast road driving.

Rear o/s 4.8outer 4.5 mid 3.8inner
Rear n/s 4.8 4.5 3.8

Front o/s 4.5outer 4.6mid 4.7inner
Front n/s 4.4 4.6 4.8

Many thanks in advance.

I went through a full set of Dunlop's in 3,800 miles (Completely even wear front/back)...yours don't look too bad to me, although the rear inners are probably wearing more because the cars probably not been pushed hard enough in the corners (motorway miles maybe?) for the amount of negative camber on the rear.

too much straight line stuff ;-)

but I see you are wearing your outers up front so more camber needed there, which is a given on oem spec unsteering mess it comes with lol.
