Luke - PZero Nero M&S Treadwear
Luke-
I bought a set of Pirelli PZero Nero M&S tires for my E320 from you in August. I've put 5,000 (mostly highway) miles on them.
I measured my tread depth and discovered all four tires are unformly worn down to about 6/32", except the back tires are at about 4/32" on the outside edge. I've kept them consistently inflated 34-36 psi front, 32-34psi rear.
If they continue to wear at the same rate, it looks like I'll be replacing at 10,000 miles. Is 10,000 mile treadlife normal for these tires in this application?
What's your longest lasting, quietest 235/45/17 tire? I'm thinking I'll go for the Yok. Avid H4 or Mich. Exalto A/S next...
Thanks!

depends on the weather
that wear rate is rather strange ... I have not heard of wear related complaints on that tire .... but, the first half of a tires tread depth always happens significantly faster than the second half .... let's visit this in about 2-3 months and I'm sure you will notice the wear happenign at a much slower rate (unless you're out doing burnouts)
