Driving with different tyre patterns and depths also increases wear and tear on the differential.
Look at it this way:- Can you drive with one eye closed? Yes Would you advise driving with one eye closed? No |

Xenon to suggest that 4 channel abs will stop a car skidding or losing total control is complete bollocks.
Read my post again. I suggest that in certain situations it IS dangerous, and CAN be fatal depending on the circumstances. |

I'd like to see your evidence too, especially the occasions where it has been fatal. I too would like to speak to our leasing company about their tyre replacement policy. I can't find any evidence of this myself on the web so it would be interesting to see it.

Would you like me to forward you the pm I sent Steve? Or would you like to argue and patronise? I'm not into playing stupid games xenon, you either take it or leave it.

Very much so. I'm not playing stupid games - if you have evidence that this is the case then I'd very much appreciate seeing it.

Aside from the fact the first thing I'd consider doing is ask for a refund on the part worn and chuck the money towards two new rears, could the juddering be due to a likely difference in rolling circumference, if as you say one tyre is now like new and the other barely legal, it could be highlighting an underlying rear diff issue/problem?
Any experts?

Hi all
sorry been mad busy, glad this topic is stirring the hornets nest... So...Ive replaced the rear tyres with 2 new Bridgestone potenzas still a judder...happens only in 5th gear now though. Ive got bmw extened warranty so I am going to take it in to the stealers and ask them to take a look. Hopefully if something is wrong it will be covered |
