Im sure im not the first to replace their rears:eek:,5700miles,i really have to calm down as i thought i would get over 10k,but not for everyone to worry ,it really must be my poor driving style and two heavy feet,so i best check my discs as well:eek:
I also hope the price will come down as more choice becomes available £549 a quarter.!!!!

Andy, see this link

Dealer quote £489 rear, £275 front.All per quarter. London Mclaren. But you would wear them out getting there and back so probably not practical :D
Andy, Given you only drive 'recreationally' then that's not too bad.

I used to get 6000 out of my 911's but never cruised on m/ways.

The London dealer gets 11000 from the demo cars.

I knew about the London dealer,thats why i thought i would get 10k,in my ignorance i thought the Demos would get thrashed,but i suppose they spend most of the time in traffic.
I also only got 6k out of my porsche,but i also thought that the suspension is kinder to the tyres.Thats why they went for a softer compound for more grip and similar wear i guess.
i have ordered from camskill a set of tyres for my GTR, everything took place well. Good adress. The mp4 is not "eco" friendly...
Sound bout right - I'm at 5K miles, and I figure I have about 1000-2000 miles left on the rears. Fronts still look good though.
