Hi
I wonder if anyone else has had this problem.
I have had my m home from new (2007) ,and have not overused the tyres (5k in 4 years). On checking them before my European foray ,I found the walls of my Michelins were detiorating. I reported this to Michelin and they advised taking it to my local tyre dealer and getting them to refer it back to them upon changing the aforesaid tyre. The dealer recommended changing all four ,on grounds of wall detioration. Needless to say i declined the offer of Michelins and went for a higher load wearing spec of a budget tyre ,thinking that this may abate future problems.
Michelins contribution to forestalling future problems was to use the tyres more and to fit U V protectors. As i live near Silverstone,I may ask Lewis ,the next time he is passing stowe corner to drop off a few of his tyre covers- anyone else had similar probs,or did I get a duff set of tyres?
