I’m getting barely 10k miles out of a set on the front of my car at the moment, which seems ridiculous to me. @TxRover is correct. A mixed combination of any of (you choose) shit steering geometry, incorrect inflation, poor driving technique and cheap tyres eats tyres. All are fixable. The wife’s A1 has 30k miles on it and it still has its’ original Hankooks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

die hard doonhamer Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 My alignment was out by a decent bit, causing the high wear on the inside of the tyres. Straightened out and new (mid range, always go mid range) tyres fitted, hopefully get a lot more from this set. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, every little while, when you check tyre pressures, or add a wee bit of air, take a quick look at the wear across the tread. Here’s a quick summary article, even if it’s spelt wrong: https://www.tirereview.com/reading-tire-wear-patterns/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WBAC whilst no as cunty as they used to be will still try and chip you away from the 'agreed' value when you take the car to them. As the transaction takes minutes these days, why not see what the dealer offers you first? You could then go to WBAC in the showroom to compare. If there's not too much difference, the dealer may match a WBAC offer. If they do, I'd be trading it there and then. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't bother with them again. I tested the market with my wife's car and their first offer was £6k. Over the next 2 - 3 weeks it went up to £8k by ignoring them. I can't be fucked with that. Also, I contacted to sell them a van which was off the road. They said they wouldn't buy it unless I took it to their Falkirk base. From that I deduce that they don't buy any car.
