If you take hard corners, your front tires will wear at the outer edge.
Negative camber (normal) on the rears will cause your inner to wear a bit more than the outer edge. |

My car has been aligned by dealer 2X in the years I have owned it - once at beginning of year right before I switched from my winters to the DW's. It does not have the Sport suspension, nor is it lowered, and I have the alignment specs printout before/after from each alignment that was done. All after specs are within acceptable range - yet still the odd wear. When I complained to the dealer, of course they stated there is nothing you can do, that due to the alignment BMW uses to enable the handling - this wear is normal? I don't see this wear on my winter tires - but they are still on factory 17" wheels, whereas my summer tires are on 18" staggered setup with wider tires than what came with car...

Pretty common for E90/E92 on stock wheels/tires for the there to be uneven wear. I see a lot of threads mentioning this.
