What Mixterk described does sound like a manufacturing defect rather than the other posts on the forum which seem to be about poor alignment and short lifespan.

Tyres just don't crack or lose chunks of tread.

This almost sounds like the sort of effect you see on REALLY OLD tyres that have sat on hardly used cars in the sun for years.

Deffo something wrong here.

Result...no ifs or buts. The Goodyear rep has replaced all 4 tyres FOC without any problems. Getting done as I write this, Victoria BMW even gave me a loaner. Happy with good service

Can only think that this was a major one off...lets hope so

No what you mean about the summer.....

Good result.

Lets hope the replacements don't fall apart - probably still only last 10,000 miles though

There was loads of meat left (other than the bits that were missing) so looked like they were tracking for 15Kmiles...anyhoo got an additional 8K miles under my belt.
