Many thanks . This one is a 160 diesel and the last one was also diesel and 150hp. Alignment has not been checked and no sign of uneven wear. Steering wheel is straight. Will mention to dealer and try to find slowere wearing tyres

Purchased new my 2011 model 9-3 TTID estate last November and looked today at the front tyres. Have 10000 miles on the clock since new and I reckon I will be lucky if I get another 1000 or 2000 miles out of the front tyres. I got 18000 miles out of the front tyres on my previous 2007 9-5 Vector Sport Estate. Car fitted with Contisport Contact 3 tyres.

Anyone else having the same experience and any suggestions on what other tyre manufacturer to try in an attempt to increase the mileage out of the front tyres. Do not believe I am heavy on the accelerator. Can I put another manufacturer's tyres on front of vehicle while retaining Conit's on the back?.  Ian 

Have a 2011 9-3 Estate with the new low emision engine. Last car was a '57  9-5 Vector Sport that was forever in garage with all sorts of problems , mainly electrical and a new alternator seemed to fix it but lost confidence in the car.
