[QUOTE="jmwong, post: 749731, member: 52626"] Hi everyone, I am new here and I have a problem with my tires. Hoping that some of you may give some advice. I got my 2 Series Active Tourer in April 2016 and earlier this year noticed some abnormalities with my front left tire. It was tearing - not that anyone I know has seen that kind of damages before. Even tire dealers expressed disbelief. The tires were manufactured in 2014. Recently, I contacted BMW and got it replaced F.O.C. When I got my car back, I noticed the right tire is also starting to disintegrate. I wrote to BMW again. Unfortunately, this time around, I was ignored. I believe they shouldn't install aged tires (almost 2 years old) onto a brand new vehicle. Can anyone advise me or share if they experience the same problem? May be affecting the same batch of vehicles? What should I do? Run-flat tires ain't cheap and I don't believe I should absorb the costs of new tires since they are consequential damage. Attached photos for your comments.. Thanks! [ATTACH]5092.IPB[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]5093.IPB[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
