T1R life

[Gandi69]

Just wondering what every else has got out of a T1Rs on an RS Clio? My car isn't driven particularly hard as its a road car and I've just got through a front set in 4500 miles - whats everyone else getting/got?

Mine didn't last 5 minutes on my saxo. Cant remember how many miles but Im sure they were bald within 3-4 months.

i have done about 10k on my fronts, still got about 3-4mm of tread left, i have put them on the back now and have new ones for the front

Sure your tracking isnt considerably out. I run t1rs on my daily set and they have been abused for a good 1000 miles and dont show signs of wearing alot

Mine have done 4000miles, get thrashed regularly and a track day. Still got loads of life.

they're exceptionally sensative to alignment. I got 8k from a set with perfect camber and tracking on my mk1, driving petty hard

Mines just been changed and my old t1rs done approx 10000 miles plus and they weren't completely bald

They are not totally totally bald but are down to the wear markers and I've noticed the handling is going a bit squiffy when its damp which I'm not happy with so they are coming off. I've ordered a new pair but I think I'll have the tracking looked at when I put them on, just wanted to know peoples averages as its seems i'm at very low end for a road based car only atleast! These have only been on since April last year

I've got two sets for my Cup, and I'm well over 15k and one trackday on one set, and something like 5k and 3 trackdays on the other set.

Both have approx 3-4mm.

Can't see how youi'd get through a set on 4.5k unless you boot it everywhere or have alignment issues.

 

[Gandi69]

I'll get it checked out when I get the wheels aligned but they arent wearing badly on the shoulders etc. Theres only one compound of T1Rs if I remember correctly from where I bought them, as my 888s on my track saxo came with 3 different compound options when I purchased those.
