Replacement Tyres

I had new Toyo tyres 3 years ago. They need replacing after 25,000 miles, does that seem about right, I think it's low?

Can you recommend a replacement set, for ride comfort and resistance to potholes and speed humps, please. 215/70R16 100T

What do you think of eTyres? They look pretty good to me, they will come to my house and fit 4 Toyos for £432 incl VAT fitting valves, etc. If I buy a different brand, I'll need to buy five tyres, I presume.

Fairly normal. Try Pirelli Scorpions or Michelin Alpins instead.
