E39, i.e. rear tyres wear so much faster (because of the rear drive factor)?2.  What wud u do?  Replace the rear two first?  or Replace all 4?  rotate front to back first to extend life? (The User Manual discourage rotation tho!)3.  Any recommendations?Some recommended Continental (locally made now, and all I can find are the ComfortConti... the tread not sexy like the Yokos, I tot), others say TOYO (?)  and I actually liked the idea as it was quoted the same as the Conti yet made in Japang + sexy <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big Grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" />  looking tread!Thanks in advance...<img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></p></blockquote><p></p>
