Tyre Wear
Now that my X1 has passed the 30 k mile mark I surprised to find that the rear tyres have still got more than 4 mm of tread left and the fronts about 6 mm. Admittedly I've a diesel ED version but this is dramatically better than any car I've had for the last 10 years and with an average mileage in the UK of about 8 k, this would suggest a possible life span of 5 - 6 years normal driving. Previously I have had lower powered front wheel drive diesel cars and tyres front or rear would last between 13 k & 19 k miles of fairly enthusiastic driving. I know all you US based drivers with your lovely strait 6 engines will be munching tyres but what kind of mileage are people generally getting?
