Generally speaking, how many miles should I be getting out of my front tyres on my 2000 A4 tdi ?

(I'm currently using MICHELIN Primacy HP)

Thanks.

I got 18000+ out of a set of Michelin Primacy tyres, excellent tyres

I currently got Goodyear NCT5 on and the fronts have done 13500 and the backs have done 20000. with a good amount of tread left yet 3mm+;)

Thanks.

(I agree great tyres, good wear & grip and very low noise).

depends on the journeys you do, motorway driving makes for good figures, but A road driving will cut the figures by a lot, i got 8k of my last set of falken 912's, switched to pirelli powergys now to see if i can get more miles, lot of roundabouts and bendy bits on my journey, hopefully see 12k :aargh4: but i doubt it, dont pay stupid prices for tyres as i do 20k a year but we'll see eh, always note down mileage on tyre receipts to keep on track.

How many motorways in Cornwall? ;) The good year is turning out to be a very good tyre for me. I do take it easy around roundabouts ever since a tyre place commented that my tyres would of lasted longer if I took the slower:o

Top advice I do that as well:beerchug:
