Hello guys, I need your opinion on the state of my rear tires. The car has 30K miles. Original tires P Zero
I have had the car for 2 weeks now and I am going back to the dealer to fix small details. But I did notice what looks to me to be unequal wear on those rear tires. Is this normal?
Thanks
30k PZeros? Get Thee to a Michelin store now, do not wait! PZeros after 15k and sometimes even less are just begging for a chance to wreck your day, and your car.
No way on Earth those tyres have done 30,000 miles, they must be at least the second set on that car.
That is also the most even wear I have ever seen on rear P-Zeros, in 99% of cases the inner edges wear out very quickly, in some cases as early as 5,000 miles.
Edit - where did the previous owner(s) drive? If it was Montreal or thereabouts then maybe they spent most of the year on different winter tyres and the tyres in the pic were used only in summer, which could explain 30,000 miles on the car but the tyres are not worn out yet.
The P Zeros on our Panamera wore more on the exterior. I just replaced them today with the Michelins 4S. I'm impressed with them on my short test drive.
from what I can gather from the service report, the original owner did replace the tires for winter tires at the appropriate dates, but there is very little or no signs of winter driving. Glad to hear the wear seems normal. MPS4 are in the plans anyway.
Could you post more pictures of underside of your car? I want to see what regular driving in the winter salt does to F-type.
I didn't take pictures, but I did see the car on a lift at the dealer before I took it and there was no signs of winter driving except for the rear shocks which had a bit of rust on them. Everything else appeared new.
