[mention]Henn28 [/mention] have you ever tried running lower psi to help the pothole situation? There is A LOT of margin on the psi numbers even before you'll get significant edge wear.

I use a Segway MiniPro for mobility and ouch on the poor knees if i inflate to spec (45) i inflate to 25 and soaks up most of the sidewalk bumps.

I haven't aired up e53 since 2021 but i think it's something like 32/39 front/rear maybe 32/32 if empty trunk.

Drop five and unless you drive crazy numbers your tires won't wear that fast. Air up full for trips of course.

I kind of don't use brakes for corners that's what m/s is for so I add 2-3 on the fronts to try to get more wear in the center.
