I will need to get a new tire to replace the Metzler Lazertec tire only 12000 miles on front tire. Rear Marathon 880 looks great hardly any tread loss. What has your mileage been with this tire b4 replacement. Is it common for the front tire to wear out before the rear? This can get expensive, and I can hear my wife now yak yak. Epically since I just talked her into a new notebook computer. Oh well that life.
