Interesting although in comparison to the PS3s they have 2mm more of tread all around.
Tyre people need to better spec there tyres really, weight could contribute to performance its easier to turn a lighter tyre, how much actual tread do you get? 7mm PS3 vs 9mm Bridgestone. where are these things written down. No wonder I got 27,300miles out of the Bridgestones on the front compared to the PS3s on 7000miles and down to 5mm already at that rate it will be 14,000 miles down to 3mm and what say 18,900 before nackered.
Bridgestone 7.4mm (9-1.6mm) tread = 27,300miles
PS3 at the moment 7000 to 2mm of tread.
That returns a 3689 miles per mm on the Bridgestone.
and 3500 miles on the PS3.
When I put it like that theres not much difference in the wear rate 189 miles per mm of tread, its just the PS3's come with less.
