Message: <blockquote data-quote="DDgreystar" data-source="post: 2508798" data-attributes="member: 5158">both are around the same price 680 if i not mistaken........depending on shops i guess ;)as for the wear rate, so far its only 10% worn off after 3 months, i usually drive it very mildly unless face with a real competition except on the WET dat is :(p/s: wear rate depends individually, most individuals with semi slick might just abuse it too much......unless u enjoy spending too much dough in exchange for frequent 4 donuts change then its abit too senseless. My previous set of R1R lasted me for 1 yr plus a bit (in fact the current change to r888 was due to a freak accident while during my routine servicing having accidentally some metal scrap poking into the sidewall of 1 tyre thus I opted to change all 4 to r888, albeit cursing the misfortune of NO MORE STOCK on R1R, btw my r1r still left 30% !!! )......the most demanding of tyre wear rate comes during hard corners. In F1 we always see that the top teams and drivers perfected the skill in nursing the tyres conditioin, similarly it depends very much on how we actually drive through the corners. Explicityly taking hard corners depending very much on the steer point n shoot effectively wears off a lot of rubber, as per experience says it, the art in weight shifting balancing, angle to angle helps to reduce significant amount of tyre wear. Coming to my attention, I know 17 inch and above, pricing for tyres can be exp.....however to go on 2nd hand tyres which r unknown of their history is simply too much for me to take a chance.....its very much like waiting for your precious ride on some expendable rubberbands at any moment........</blockquote>
