65k on a front tyre

Well I just got a shock when I realised that I have done 65k miles on a front tyre.

Only reason i have changed it is because it's got a wobble sound but it's still legal with only very edge a bit smooth.

I'm sure I got it in my budget to change backs at 20k and fronts at 40k lol

They don't normally last that long due to punctures but that is crazy. I'm on my third set of rear tyres.

But I got a feeling that I finished it off yesterday on a spirited drive in the countryside. The chords are only just coming through though. You cant really see them without looking really close

Our 330e is in 70k and in the same front tyres. It's perhaps done 10k on winters though. Most of the tyre has 4mm left, with a smooth outer edge. Being a lease car though they won't change them and they won't sort the alignment either.

I seem to wear M4 fronts at not much less than I do the rears!
