5000 miles where's he been 'The ring'
everyone else seems to think they wear well and are better then the T1-R Toyo's which Toyo claim are supposed to last longer then the T1-S's I have.
Not sure how you knock out just the rears on 4WD as all the scoobs I have had seem to wear fairly evenly, more front wear on edges if anything

I normally get them fitted at either Kwik-fit bexhill (used to be Ebley but I think it's the same lads) or Victoria Tyres Hastings.
sometimes (well they used to) do a cash job.
