BMW recommends up to 7 psi different front to rear, depending on expected load, so they obviously expect some difference in rolling diameter.

Sorry to revive an old post but been reading what does matter is also tread depth?not just rolling diameter, if you had mismatched tires like I do...varying tread patterns all round, you reckon drivetrain/transfer case failure is something that is imminent and would be immediate or would I get some sort of warning....?
