So I know that it depends on how you drive, but what is a normal tyre life for the fronts and rears?


On my Impreza STi I used to get about 20k miles from them - and I drove quite fast I thought!) but what should I expect from the Monaro? (6.0L VXR should that make any difference!).

10-12K I find
Fronts should be more, depending on if you have paid monkfish for handling pack. I had large problems with fronts wearing inner edges out. Just had said pack done so hopefully will get 20K out of fronts, fingers crossed.

Rears on my CV8 made 12,000miles before change. No hard driving either. Fronts about to be replaced on 15,000 miles (inner edges wearing). Need to see Monkfish re this if I can get time off work.

Hmm, guess my driving style is a little more "enthusiastic" than most. I can get up to 5k on a pair of rears, considerably more for the fronts. I average 14-16mpg on super unleaded.

1000 for the rears and about 2000 for the fronts as have to put them on the back after the backs are gone, if that makes sense.
