Yup, standard bogo Mich Pilot Sports (standand BMW guff).
Now replaced with Vred Ultrac Sessantas.
I know, I know, sidewalls were FAIL, but I that was the only thing assuring me I actually had some tread left!
Tyre monkey said I could have got £100 on ebay and sold them as ready to go track tyres. I informed him, only supercar entusiasts would require a tyre of such dimensions
He then pointed out my 530d badge, and I felt sad.
What clown put a D on your badge!! Oh... right... fail
I've always changed tyres when I feel they're becomign less effective. I don't drive like miss daisy so do experience good braking distances from speed to 0 (dual carraigeway with 3 roundabouts on daily drive). I'm just on the legal limit now and they're still just as effective although I probably am adjusting my driving to suit small changes maybe.
I wish I could drive more sensibly to avoid extreme tyre wear
If anyone is interested. Those pilot sports were the original tyres from the cars birth. Mileage now reads 23k. That probably means they covered 20k legally
