Photos should load via the 'Add files'' button on the entry screen below the 'Full Editor' & 'Submit' buttons in quickl reply mode, unless they are over the size limit (8MB for all combined). If too large then either use a smaller version or split the message. :)

Tyre code will be a 4 digit number on the sidewall. Something like 5022 for tyres made in Week 50 of 2022.

Sorry it’s taken so long, they were covered up in the shed, but it’s very cold and difficult to get to.
The only four digit number I can find is 2611, but I did not buy them from bmw until late 2012, I found the receipt, unless bmw are selling tyres that are a year old.

Hi thanks , yes that is the week of production 26th and 2011 meaning they are over 11 years old ! Quite a lot of the time they are bought in when availability is high and sold when no one else can get them . Unfortunately no good for me as a new set of tyres are over £800 on top but good luck with the sale !
