Covered 40,000 now on full second set of tyres and replacing rear tyres for third time. Car is an asutomatic and slips in the wet which I thnk accounts for the wear on the rear tyres.

These tyres were supplied as factory fits for my BMW 520D in October 2007. I've just had a dealer service and they've advised that I should "think about" changing the (original) rear tyres as they were between 2&3mm. Mileage? Well, I'll hit the 40,000 mark next week and it is booked in for new tyres. Is this a record for a rear wheel drive BMW?! Incidentally, the front tyres are still good for at least another 5k. Problems? Only that the very cold 2009/10 winter occasionally caused a loss of tyre pressure (minus 10c+ cold start followed by a fast motorway drive seemed to cause the loss of pressure and indicator light to flash). I know that these tyres aren't cheap and the ride can be on the firm side but they are the best tyres I've used in 25 years. Highly recommended.
