Based on Tyres Shop recommendation will be every 10,000KM.

But if your car is Sport Edition then cannot do the swap

See you around

Hi BMWSILVER, thanks for you feedback. Sport edition can not swap due to front and back tyres are different size, am i right.

Yup, due to tyre size being staggered(front 225 / back 245), you cant do that.

from my understanding of the design goal of BMW, the car is 50-50 balanced and hence there is little necessity to rotate the tyres. do waste time and money doing it.
