Nice pics, thanks for posting.
Glad you had a nice trip.
I think you'll like the T-31 GTs.

Hello Enfo
Are you not happy with 9000 km's from your tires? I went with the T31's just recently and I'll be happy with that mileage. What I find about tires, especially the PR4's is that they claim huge mileage and performance, but how many people plan a long trip and change them out prematurely? With my type of driving, I don't think I would notice a difference between the two, but I do notice the significant price difference.
To be clear, safety is always my main concern.

Not bad mileage. Were the T-31s toast or did they have a little more mileage in them?
I would consider this very poor mileage. I recognize that we all have different driving styles, but...I got 12,000 miles out of my Pirelli Angel GT rear and almost the same on my Bridgestones...the only tires I got less than 6,000 miles out of were Dunlop RoadSmart

The front has a little left in it (1,500 to 2,000 km maybe) but the rear one has both sides like a "slick" tire.
So far on the ST, the tires have been like this for me:
Dunlop RS 3 : 9,452 KM
Avon Spirit: 9,166 KM
Bridgestons T-31: 8,787 KM
Michelin's will be next, I need to know since I'm planning a longer trip this fall.
