Thanks all for the reponses. I have the optional 10" rear wheels which is making the wear situation worse as noted by Colin. To Tron20, I originally had bad wear on the inner 15% of the front pair too but a local tyre fitting garage agreed to set up the geometry and camber (all the national chains wouldn't touch it!!). I then got 45K out of the next set of Conti-sports! Brilliant. However, the rear tyre wear problem persists. The local tyre garage I use have suggested I get the rears set up by a specialist like Protyre in Bristol. Has any one else done this and were the results positive? Cheers, Marco.

Greetings all, I can not get a set of rear tyres to last more than 10K on this model of car. Have tried all sorts; hard, mixed and soft compounds from different manufacturers. Nothing works; the tyres are destroyed on the inner 15% of tread within 10k. I assume its a fault with this model with the wide wheels and lowered suspension. I always have 4 wheel geometry checked after new tyres are fitted. Can anyone confirm this problem and fully explain it or are there GS300 Sport - series 1 owners out there not experiencing this rubber- devouring trait on there cars? Feedback much appreciated folks. Marco.
