Sorry. I don't know what I was thinking - it's the Mini I keep at that. The Beemer is more like 36. Though by the sounds of it, it may be still too low. I was under the impression that it was over, not under, inflation that caused centre wear, but I can see how the ballooning thing would do it too.

There are lots of places that look like they have them when you come through a Google search. Unfortunatley, when trying to order, they come up as not available.
