Same old, Same old.

I too have suffered this problem.

Worn inside edges leading to blow outs, Goodyears of course.

BMW Sytner High Wycombe said the same thing, "tyre pressures wrong, sporty setup etc...."

I showed him the list of recorded pressures I had for every 2 weeks (OCD on my part ) and he suggested an alignment check. All was good, they gave that to me for free but charged for the 2 rear Goodyear replacements. Sent the old tyres off to Goodyear who replied to me saying they couldn't find a fault.

That was late last year but they weren't used over the winter as I have winter tyres. So, since the Spring and after only 4 to 5 thousand miles the inner edges are again wearing.

I think I will print out this thread and ask them to replace the rears with Pirellis.

Has anyone with 19" wheels suffered the same problem?
