Hi there.Just sent my F10 528 for balancing last week. The tyre shop said I can't rotate the tyres. After 1 year I now only realised my back tyres are 275 but front is 245!Is that normal? I have not had the chance to go an do some "investigations" in the BMW showroom...Also, anyone knows how much a replacement set of Dunlop SP SPORT MAXX GT R18 size (Can't remember the middle number right now -.- )? Tyre shop quoted me about 1k + He said some times even 900 also can get la. But I am worried those are old ones.Oh and it seems that one of the back rims are slightly dented, I heard BMW/VW-Audi rims are not as "strong" as Asian cars, is it true?Thanks!(nevertheless I will never defect to Ingoldstadt. Munich still makes better cars (Y) )
 
Yes it is normal, this is considered a staggered set up for your tyres. It is normal for some of the models especially the m-sport models or certain models within the 3-series range to have different tyre widths for front and back. E.g. E90 320d M-Sports come with 225 front and 255 rear.
