OG ZS EV with over 40k miles
Primacy 3 fitted
Very light fissures on the front from age, less to none on rears
Fronts 2mm so let’s address that.
Rears 4mm
Tyre label I think was C rated fuel. A wet, 72dB noise, so not the best! Tyre life amazing though. Can it be bettered?
Choices?
Replace fronts. Preference is the quieter and more economical the better. EGP2 perhaps. How about all seasons? Searching the forum, does no one consider the economic loss on all seasons by the way? Downsides, older slower wearing tyres on the rear
Rotate tyres. TPMS won’t readjust. No alerts, just in the wrong place? Upsides; wear down the OG rears. Down sides; N/S alloy rash will spread to two wheels, front always gets it. Dealer may have to retune. Overall the cost saving leads to cost expense.
Replace all 4. Even wear all over, consistent performance. Those rears will likely crack in the next 1-2 years needing replacement anyway. The nuclear option.
