My 2010 Mazda CX7 is not yet 3 years old and has only done 26,000 km and already I need four new tyres. I am a mum of two, so I don't go hooning around Sydney or flying around corners or anything like that. Mazda has told me that it is about right for soft compound tyres, but I would love to hear your thoughts.
We have received similar enquiries from owners of many of the current crop of SUVs like the CX7, and all have been surprised to find they need new tyres after a relatively short period of time and low kays. It's a combination of the weight of these juggernauts, the softer compounds of the tyres used, and in some cases the aggressive way they are driven. That you got 26,000 km out of the tyres is about average.
