Swiftly said:Phew, a good result for you Andy, now you will be able to enjoy Christmas without worrying
Oh, not so sure about that. One tyre, you see, if it was two tyres it would be normal wear, but one tyre.... Could there be something wrong with the brake that it wears that tyre out more? Perhaps a sticking handbrake? Could the tyre be mounted wrong so that it wears more? Is that shockbreaker not right on that side? Perhaps touching that wheel against the kerb has misaligned the wheel. oooohhhhh

Tbh its my own fault -I bought two tyres from Mafoo on here,only to find out that one of them had a star after the reo number -I later found out that its not a good idea to mix them?-so I only had the one fitted-and with the house move etc its been a blurry year :roll:pvr said:Swiftly said:Phew, a good result for you Andy, now you will be able to enjoy Christmas without worrying

yes I would worry too,
:lol:Passed today as well, the first one that I've had with this car, luckily I'd had a Insp II at the dealership a few days ago & they''d advised me of a broken coil spring which I got sorted with some Suplex springs during the week.
How come an MOT is as nerve wracking as waiting for your first born :?

Isnt the star just acknowledgement that it passes BMW standard,s regarding the size tolerance ?
If you have 2 tyres on same axle the same size IE/ 225 45 17 & both are summer/winter/runflat/non runflat i can,t see the issue there mate ?
The TT i bought came with the correct sized tyres but each corner was a different tread pattern/depth & manufacturer
Not any more though
