Alan, what pressure do you run in your 215/35/18 's if you don't mind me asking?

Matt

I run the Dunlops and the Falkens at the same pressure as per BMW recommendation 36 PSI

[Richard Crofts]

Hell it must handle horrid mate!

I run 26 fronts 28 rears and it handles the best it ever has on falkens and nangkangs ... i used to run 30 and it was horrid, 33 as BMW remomended at the time was so skitish it just was not funny on aftermarket tyres!

Seems odd that deflating the tyres causes it to rub ... thats not right surely

[Vitesse]

Richard, I think that the conclusion is that it isn't rubbing at all. It's the under inflation that has caused the tyres to wear like that.

[mattyc]

Vitesse is right.
I'm wrong and now £860 worse off!
£500 on tyres
£200 on discs and pads
£160 on labour!

[Richard Crofts]

ouch!

They must have been very derflated
