[QUOTE="Sniper, post: 1532850, member: 19833"] That's exactly what I was getting at, tread wear is more reliant upon heat then actual contact. If the temperature of the tire is managed better by keeping the air pressure higher then there is less wear. Even if only a portion of the tire is in contact with the road the tire will show less wear over the same period then if the contact patch was evenly distributed across the tread. Thanks for your input n16ht5. [/QUOTE]
