      Just been to get a slow puncture repair done and found both rears at 3mm and fronts at 4mm

      So now booked in for 2 rears to be fitted this Saturday 20th

      Car fitted with Bridgestone and covered 8400 miles

      Thought they would have been better wearing than this

      Suppose it could be down to the weight of the car

      First time I’ve had Bridgestone on a car and not impressed with the wear rate

      Our 3 series had pirelli and managed 21000 out of those

      Continental was also a good wearing tyre (vx insignia)

        Mob ops approved the tyre change while I was there no problem

        Refitted with Bridgestone, what Kwik Fit did say was that the original tyres weren’t the higher load rating tyres which I thought they should be given the weight of the car

        Looks like Seat went for style over sustance

          Yeah sounds about right then of seat, it’s how they are cheaper than vw.

          I lived in bangor for a while and have some family still in north wales and those snowdonia (like) roads can wear your tyres down alot. Great fun though..
