Pirelli tire failure on 1998 BMW 323ic. The tires, at least two of the four have failed.the car shakes at any speed in excess of 35 mph. I have been told that after testing on a very sophisticated machine that the tires have excessive road force problems, tire rack said pirelli will not stand behind these very expensive tires, as they only cover problems w/N the first 2/32nds of wear. My tires have 3/32nds of wear. They cannot be used at speeds in excess of 35 mph. I have been told that I will have to buy a new set of tires, this dosnt make any sense.
