Is it normal for Continental tyres to wear down so quickly?
My daughter has a large Volkswagen 4x4 to tow a horse box. She had Continental tyres fitted and they have only lasted 4600 miles. Is this unusual?

Without a doubt something wrong here, unless, of course, these are dedicated off-road tyres in which case they would wear quickly. Suggest replacing them with Pirelli Scorpion STRs.
