Any sports, soft tyre will wear quick and Pilots dont last any longer. Could do with Multi-compound tyres like the bikers have, harder in the center soft on the edges.

Does anyone know the best place to buy Conti Navigators or Zippys online? I fancy getting rid of the Savas as they just don't inspire confidence - especially in the rain. |

OK, we only have a few left of Michelin Pilot Sports £30.00 each!
It looks like the average life of a rear tyre is 2,500 - 3,000 miles.
I don't like the sava and find the Pilot brilliant.
We will be getting more Pilots', but the price will be more, due to Michelin increasing their prices!!
