Mine was serviced yesterday, 31,000 miles, 5mm left all round on my Pirelli Scorpions, fortunately have 4 new ones (1000 miles on) stored in garage courtesy of Mike46 on here, £350 so a bit of a saving.

That's why the cheaper properties are always to the East of any conurbation, prevailing Westerlies keep the air on the West clean |

Iain- 23,000, on road, on grass a bit and on lots of rocky roads. 3mm all round! Pretty much equal wear front to back. Would have like to have squeezed another few thousand miles out of them. However, large chunk of glass in LHS front & deep tear between treads on LHS rear.

thanks MM, still you must be happy with the Pirellis to go for them again. mines have done nearly 19,000mls and I was hoping to get at least 30,000mls out of them no off road only tarmac. Iain |
