Default WANTED: 275/35/20 Tyres

Hi
I'm trying to get to the bottom of my inner tyre wear and as suggested I may have too narrow tyres at the front.
Wider tyre may extend my tyre life, but before splashing little fortune for the second time this year on a new set of tyres I want to try 275s and see if that will slow the wear down a bit.
I would rather try used tyres first with more than 5-6mm left in case it wont slow the wear down.
Any quantity

Cheers

Cheers Neil
I've spent hour on eBay and got tired with the choice they have so went to restaurant and cinema and I'll finish the search in the evening.
What's the thread on new tyres, 7-8mm??
4-5mm it's just about half of tyre's life then or actually slightly less minus the wear indicator
