    Default tyre help to stay nt5000 or change

    hi guys last june i forked out n put 4 new nt5000 235/35/19 s on my car. today i realised my front two are getting really close to the limit where as the back still has the hairs on them . ive only done about 10k since owning the car which is roughly 7k with these tyres . has anyone else found that they wear the same or is it a car fault ? ill prob need to change the front two again in june and im undecided if i should stick with these or change. i cant fault them, the grip is great . i do give the car a kick now n then but the other 95% is just town driving . is there any other tyres i should consider ?

    I have just fitted some Sailun Atrezzo's from Asda tyres, mine are only on 17 inch rims and were £65 fitted quite impressed with them so far. For the 19, they come in at £72.04 fully fitted at a local garage, chck the wet grip and the noise levels!!

    Im on 17s, and using Uniroyal Rainsport 2's. Not the cheapest, but my front and rears now have 4mm+ on them and covered nearly 19000 miles!

    I'm running the same as mcclusky and rotate my tyres about every six months, and do round the doors driving with a long journey every few weeks or so, haven't noticed any major wear. Is it in any particular area or right across the thread that they're wearing bud?

    think i may get the same again because the value and performance is really good. maybe i should get 4 wheel alignment done. it runs straight but a slight vibration at speed. but dont think that could account for the wear rate
