    thanks guys for your recommendations...

    yeah, the KU31's dont last, exactly right, the outer edge does wear out a lot quicker compared to other tyres...

    I feel almost raped every time I pay for something in Canberra, the prices are always ridiculous compared to other capital cities

    Tyre options? Federal 595Evo or Kumho KU31?

    I've had ku31's and sp2000 on the golf, now sp sport maxx on the polo. The ku31 was a quiet tyre compared to the dunlops, sp sport maxx has better wet grip, ku31 had great predictable dry grip but squishy sidewalks which resulted in higher edge wear, also wear is high on the ku31 vs the sport maxx. The sport maxx is a squealer the ku31 rather quiet.

    I'm going the 595 Evo next because by all reports its a great tyre in the dry for the money, not great in the wet but... Unless I can get a good deal on Pirelli or track down the Yokohama that I want...
