Guys, any help is welcome. Apart from control arm bushes, is there anything else I should for the above problem? Tyres are due soon, so I need to know how to stop the uneven inside wear on the front.

60,000 miles, and still going strong, on the original OEM Goodyear Eagle SA tires 225/50 x17 - 2007 530i non-sport suspension. Exactly ONE rotation at about 45,000 (front to back only - no crossing). I am, however, looking at new tires. Am I crazy to consider something different?

Besides your driving habits and road conditions, isn't tire wear a major factor in the brand/style tire you choose to buy? I would expect that a high performance tire with softer rubber would not last as long as a all season radial. You're taking a mileage hit in exchange for grippiness.
