Default Useful Tire and Wheel Tech Link

Found this site while researching new tires. Lots of possibly useful info.
http://www.1010tires.com/tech.asp
Also, I see the Falkens are popular with the board. However, reviews I've seen are mixed regarding tread-life. What are AR drivers experiences? I'm also looking at the Yoko Avid H4S. Any thoughts?<ul><li><a href="http://www.1010tires.com/tech.asp">http://www.1010tires.com/tech.asp</a</li></ul>

Default i just ordered my third set...the other two sets each gave 30,000+ miles.

and when you compare the miles to the cost (74.00+UPS+install) you can't go wrong with this tire.

Default Only 15,000 out of my Falkens

But I had some uneven wear -- there was good tread left on a couple of them when I replaced them. I'm not sure what caused the uneven wear. I've been compulsive about alignments, but I should have rotated the tires more often.

I got 17K on my 512s. Now happily running AVID H4S, a great all-around 3-season tire.

Default same here, except with my SP9000s.

I just noticed HEAVY uneven wear. Rears were shot, and the fronts looked almost brand new. I've got 4 SP Maxx's sitting in the garage right now, hopefully will M/RFB today. Getting an alignment on Monday, and hopefully will be better about rotating.

Good thing the new tires were on sale, thanks to gragavar's posting.<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/allroad/msgs/168815.phtml">allroaders looking out for one another</a></li></ul>
