New Shoes

Have been looking at the Continental Road Attack 3s although have not decided yet. My best value tire is still the Dunlop RS3s

I have the Continental RA3 tires at the moment. They are great tires to ride on. The only problem is they are not lasting very long. When new, the rear tread depth to the wear marks was 6 mm. It is now down to 1.5 mm after only 4,800 miles. My math says they'll last until about 6,500 miles, which is not great. I got 9,000 out of the original Metzeler Roadtec Z8 and they had about 1000 miles of life left in them when I replaced them. I replaced the subsequent Dunlop RS3s at 7,700 miles, and they still had about 1,500 miles left in them.
