2003 530 I

I'm having a similar problem with my 02 525i - I have Continental ContiExtremes and it seems like they go out of balance as soon as I get them balanced - all 4 tires!!!. BMW gave me a speech about how the tires are "cupped" and thats probably whats causing them to continuously go out of balance and will need to replace all 4 tires. The tires are only a few months old and I'm hesitant to just dump them but that looks like its what its going to have to be.
I had a Chrysler 300C with Conti tires. Had 3 balances and two alignments in 20
k miles. Thought it was the car, but maybe the tires are just crap. Currently have Dunlop tires (dealer cheapies) on my 530I, 27,000 miles and no wear indication or balance problems. Have heard lots of complaints about Continentals from car owners other than BMW. Dealers all making excuses.
