Cheers, Craig
look it was noticeable especially considering how quiet they are normally but really after nearly 100K you would expect some noise and ride quality degradation . i could have pushed them well over 100K if it wasn't wet . it was starting to get a little hairy in the wet and i had a 2000km round trip for work so didn't want to do that with the current set so pulled the pin and swapped em out

Thanks mate.
My Coooper SRX's have done about 82,000 Klm's with about 10 - 20K left.
I have noticed the last few thousand K's that the ride has become more harsh, but the noise is still good.

Cheers, Craig

I'm talking about the tyres. I have 275/65-18 Goodyear Duratrac's and had them grab the front of the rear wheel arches on a sandy track a few weeks ago! Also, the carpet in the wheel arches cops it hard with these tyres, a whole lot more than the same sized Cooper ST-Maxx I had previous to the GY's.

they are only 13mm larger in the radius (26mm overall) than stock so I cant see them being a problem
