Sounds like you are considering trying something else next time Trevor?
Still a Goodyear Dazz. Efficient Grip or Excellence.

Here is one for you, Trev....hope that you can advise me...I had 4 Dunlop Duraplus tyres fitted yesterday. The original tyres were on the car for 70,034km...which I am happy with.I was going to leave the rears on for another 10,000km but it was pointed out that the inside edge of the driver's side rear tyre was smooth....and wouldn't have passed rego.I have always rotated radial tyres front-to-back every 10,000km.The Duraplus is an asymmetrical tyre that is non-directional. What I am wondering is whether it would be better to rotate them front-to-back or fronts to straight back and rears to cross over to opposite fronts.My thoughts are that if I rotate the way mentioned above, this wear mentioned above would not have concentrated on this one tyre. Is this flawed logic? Which is the best way to rotate for this particular tyre....and what pressures should I run? (I have always used 40psi (cold) front and 36psi (cold) rear.Thanks,Paolo
Thanks Trev,My Getz "Goodyear" Duraplus tyres have now done 45,000 km. I will rotate them as per plan B next time.What pressures would you advise for my diesel? (Mainly highway kilometres with just driver on board.)Cheers,Paolo
In every car I have owned the speedo has always been between 5 and 10% fast. I have never known one to be dead accurate.
IIRC my runs through the Ballarat max 117 meters registered 106 for my speedo's 110. That makes it (110-106)/110=4/110=3.6%
