e90 335i weird tire wear

mtnbiker326 · 02-04-2014, 02:42 PM

This is puzzling to me.

Just bought a 2009 335i and the tires on the passenger side of the vehicle (both front and rear) are almost to the wear indicators on the yokohama summer ultra high performance tires. The drive side front and rear tires look like they have 30k miles left on them.

I figure alignment BUT they are worn EVEN across the ENTIRE tire, no wear spots or anything.

Any thoughts?

Maybe the previous owner didn't replace all 4 at the same time.

This might sound dumb, but did you check to make sure that the wheels/tires are correctly staggered front + rear? A few other members mentioned on here that they've gone in for service only to realize MONTHS later that someone tried rotating the tires and ended up with a rear wheel/tire on the front axle of the car
