I'm going to try very hard to get these SportContact 3's fitted again, as I'm happy with the performance, ride and longevity of these.

That's encouraging to hear; I have 12k miles on my F10 with the same wheels/tyres and they're looking virtually new with no sign of uneven wear. As a matter of interest what pressures do you run? I set mine to 30/32psi front/rear.
