Continental Rear DW's going away FAST
I have less the 8K on a set of DW tires. It will not make to to 10K miles. The driving is 100 miles a day to and from work. My wife and I are not driving the car hard. Alinement is good. Stock tires made to 17K with a bad alinement. The wear is even accros the face of the tire and no cupping of treadblocks. Any Ideas???

you are running 35psi-37psi range?
hummmm... my DW's look only slightly worn with about 3.5k miles. |
Not so good... I thought the Continentals were a fairly good treadwear! ~300
|
yah, that's wat ive been hearing/reading too... hummm...
|
Here is my setup. This is the day the tires were put on. 8K miles ago

....whoa, that's weird. i know plenty of people on DWs and they like that they are lasting for quite a bit, and offer good performance.
|
Bad batch of tires; rough roads; excessive cornering....?

yah, use 35-37 cold. you are underinflated.
alignment number (toe-in) looks okay. |
Under inflation is likely it. Have you checked alignment recently?

Just had RE11's. I made a mistake the DW's went 11K. The HKS coilovers did set down some after the install. Aline is off some. Will have to install the toe bolt kit
