Tire Wear GYF1 Vs. PS2 (Europe/USA)(Luke?)

Hello,

There is somethink strange.

Michelin PS2 has a tradewear of 220
GoodYear F1 GDS-2 has a tradewear of 280

A huge diference here between the two.

As far as I read in this forums, I always read that the F1 has much better wear that the PS2.

What is strange that here in Spain is the oposite: profesionals and users says that PS2 has better wear than the F1.

Is it possible that the materials or the tires are diferent in Europe and this is why the change?

Best Regards.

depends on the weather
those numbers are not that accurate ..... since the companies are allowed to interpret the test results independently ... in my experience the Eagle F1 GS-D3 lasts a little longer

For 80% urban driving + 19% HighWay driving + 1% Track driving.

17000 Km/Year and the F1 last me 1 year and 10 months, which ones do you recomend me?

I like more the treat design of the Michelin simply because tire's seams wider.

Best Regards and Thanks.
