Hi Davy,

I appreciate the interest and apologise for slow response.

I don't have a tread measure thing. But will pass local tyre chap tomorrow and get him to measure for me.

And it is also getting complicated. BMW dealer has been really good and is providing new wheels under warranty (lacquer is coming off---they are not damaged!), so I need to get to them for new wheels. However, the tread on the conti SP5 rears is probably illegal, so I suspect (hope to get time to talk to dealer tomorrow) that they would not take off the conti's and put back on to new wheels and let me drive away.

So I may either ask them to put the bridgestones back on, or get two new conti's for rear, or any one of the other permuations. YTalked to Protyres and they may have Komho's which seem to have goods reviews.

So if you can bear with me for a few days I will slowly get answers.

Thanks,
