[QUOTE="Graham Downunder, post: 221282, member: 3550"] I think you will find a combination of Quality control of compound mix ( ie too soft on some too hard on others ) Thottle control or abuse Road surface Temperature ( higher temp faster wear ) time travelling ( short 10-15 minute trips =little wear, 2 plus hours in the sadlle more wear ) Wet weather riding tires run cool and do not wear as fast Load Breaking ,last minute heavy breaking will reduce tire life( and contribute to cupping of front tire) all have an affect on tire life.
