If you drive the car hard then 8k is normal.

BTW none of those tyres, Pilot Sport 4s

where does everyone purchase the 4s from?? they feel really soft and sticky which is good for on a track but for normal driving seem like you dont get the use out of them?

Not sure on how they wear, tbf your driving a 100k car, does it really matter if you get 2k fewer miles on a set of tyres They offer the best grip by far.

Spot on, I found a massive difference when I was running them on the F90.

Worth noting that (according to my dealership) BMW apparently recommend no more than a 2mm tyre depth difference between *all* the tyres to stop extra wear on the transfer box/diff.
Don't know how true that is.

PS4S, like everyone else recommended... it's what the car should have come with in the first place instead of those halfassed pzeros. Great grip, and who cares if lasts a few less miles. Believe me, you won't regret it.
