If an average set of tryes costs what - 300 quid for about 20k miles, hats
1.5p a mile straight.

Brakes need relining at similar intervals and chances are, new discs at
every other interval.

Really?
I have worn out tyres but I have never had to have the brakes relined on any
car I have had.
They appear to last at least 60,000 miles.
