I am already noticing some understeer "sliding" when going around roundabouts and normal speeds. I have spoken to the dealer and they claimed all tyres were at or above their minimum tread depth of 3mm when inspecting for CPO, and all they are prepared to do is offer me £150 towards new tyres.
I do think there may be an issue here.
Would be interesting to see if different pressures will make a difference. I am about to switch onto winter wheels and tyres now anyway, but will come back and address in the spring.

I’ll keep you/the forum posted JDS. Keep an eye on those inside edges mate, 3000 miles isn’t a lot, and it is almost impossible to see particularly with the rears ! I think the advice about upping the pressure is very worthwhile. But I still need to hold BMW to account.
