    well, finally got round to checking mi tyre pressures last neet. 26 int front, and 30 int rear. Bloody track day pressures!!! Pumped up to 32f/36r, and feels a lot better this morning ont way into work. The ironic thing is, it's felt strange for months, especially when mi tyres are cold, and i'd think to misen to check em. Then I'd forget, until t'next time I got on it. Perks of gettin owd, methinks.

    I expect that front tire wear will be much faster than rear tire wear and the frequent rotation just allows you to share the wear between front and rear tires. I think that since a significant portion of the braking force is on the front tires (regenerative braking is only on the front tires) and all of the "driving" force is applied to the road with the front tires, this "double duty" for the front tires plus the steering forces applied by the front tires, it should be no surprise that they wear significantly faster. This in no way explains any of the reports of uneven wear. I would be curious to hear any explanations for the uneven wear. Thanks in advance,
