Tacx Satori - tyre contact problems

Hi I was just wondering if anyone can give me advice for how much surface of the tyre should be in contact with the mag wheel.
I have toyed with this for about 2 weeks now and cant seem to get it right.
it is just shreading my tyre to pieces. basically been on it 3 times and tyre is now through to the material, all rubber gone!!
I have tried with very little contact, then with lots, doesnt seem to make a difference.
Just wondered if anyone, who has got it right, could post a picture on here of how much contact they have or offer any advice.
This could become an expensive winter if i go through tyres this quickly.
Cheers
Matt

Either get a turbo trainer specific tyre or, if you have them lying about, use armadillos on the rear tyre.

I use standard tyres and have no problems at all.
Turbos wear armadillos really badly - I managed to split one completely in a couple of weeks.
I use worn out Michelin Krylions - they hardly seem to wear on the turbo.
