How quickly do Tyres wear

[Jimbofartpants]

Hi I’m looking at getting a id3 family pro 204ps and just wondering how the tyres wear/last and what they cost to replace please? As broker I’m using has offered a maintenance deal that covers tyres, breaks and services etc for £26 a month.

Hi Jimbo,
The service schedule is first service after two years (pollen filter and inspection) then every 20k or year after that. Some quotes of an official service cost of £160 or so.

Tyres - some thought their tyres were wearing fast - but it turns out the fitted id3 tyres start with 6mm of tread - so it’s probably more ‘normal’ wear rates.

Brakes. Drums at back (unusual!) that are sealed units with a 150000km life.. discs at front. On mine - they’ve been barely used (1800miles) no brake dust on the wheels. In short loads of the braking comes from regen by the motor on the back axle so they wear very slowly.

Depends how long you want to keep the motor and how hard you drive. I wouldn’t bother - but if you think you’ll cane a set of tyres in 2 years - then with the cost of the first service you might break even.

I understand 6mm is true for the Bridgestones, but the Goodyears on mine have 6-7mm on them after 4000 miles - they're the same front and rear.
