Non* tyres were always rumored to burn the VTG. Due to flattening of the tyre shoulder all the torque goes to the rear wheels during acceleration. The VTG is not designed to withstand 90 or more % of torque distribution to one axle only, causing the lamels/disc to burn, oil to boil...
This was the official explanation (mainly by unofficial channels) of bmw mechanics. Also cross-changing of tyres every 10.Kkm or so was recomended.
Whether newer VTGs are imune to this....i dont know.
