    you know when they say 60% or whatever left, always wondered 60% of what? is every tyre the same and its 60% of a known depth and where is it measured from? or is it just the sellers opion?

    thanks

    A lot of the part worns are winter tyres. tried them too many times to have anything good to say about them. different composition to the normal tyres you get here. constantly getting punctures and 3 blow outs with them. i wont buy them again, they are a real false economy.

    and normally my opinion is they look to have half the tread to what the seller claims.

    when a seller says 30% left i called them bald and when he says 60% it means there is a bit of grip left in them but really im getting rid of them as there poor to grip and i want new tyres
