I fitted brand new set of Michelin Pilot Sport 4 255/45/18 DOT 2020 on my 4.2 40V A8 D3, in March, had the allignment done...
I´ve broken the 20.000km mark yesterday and there is something strange. I noticed at 10.000km that the rears wear out faster, so I made another allignment in another tyre shop that has a brand new Hoffmann 3D Allignment system. Everything fine with the allignment so far.
Now to my question:
Front ones are worn about 1,5/2mm, the rear ones have about an 1,5mm left to the thread wear indicator so it means that they will be due for replacement very soon. We changed them front/back yesterday so I can probably make another 20.000km with those tyres. Is it normal that the quattro eats through rear tyres faster? I check tyre pressure regurarly and I have 2.1 bar in the back and 2.3 in the front, with cold tyres as per user manual. The wear is 100% even through the whole tread not even slightly on the shoulders (front and back).
