[QUOTE="KL2DC, post: 177620, member: 3452"] I have the same low-speed (up to 10mph) grinding sound as well. In my case, it happened to be those darn RFTs. I am planning to take it up as a warranty claim. Admittedly, I must say, I haven't been pussyfooting my E90 that much...but still :D There is an announcement by Bridgestone on feathering/cupping of the EL42s. Amusingly, they are now recommending rotation every 3k miles :rolleyes: JV88: Based on my experience, I was leaning towards proper alignment/balancing since you've done suspension work and wheel/tire change, to cure the 'grinding' sound. Not sure what the factory specs are, perhaps you can bug your SA for them, but a member on e90post did his alignment (330i Sport) recently and got this printout...
