New tyres

Thanks for the advice guys. The front tyres are showing some wear on the inner edges. It was in at BMW and had a new track rod end and therefore a KDS wheel alignment, which I would have wanted done anyway before fitting new boots.

However they couldn't adjust the castor to within the desired tolerances, after waiting four weeks for the KDS printout the dealer brought this to my attention, citing possible bent wishbones. The car is sitting on just under 57k miles and had the right wishbone replaced at 38k.

Any thoughts on this? I wouldn't want to violate my new tyres!
