Tyre recommendations

CJMali · 07-20-2020, 03:22 AM

Hi All, need to get the tyres on my E93 replaced soon. Any recommendations for run flats?

18" rims, 225/40 front and 255/30 rear.

Stay far away from run flats. Unless you are looking for decreased ride quality, bad steering feel and increasing your unsprung weight

FYI, our cars did not come with run flats.
I don't think anyone here has put run flats on this car.
It would be a HUGE waste.

Ps. Believe the 335i came with RF, at least mine did back in 2009.

Yes. My wife had an E90 335 with runflats, but our M cars never had them.
OP may want some runflats, but doubt anyone here would know anything about runflat tires for our car. That would be a terrible decision.

You are swapping out parts designed by some of the top engineers in the world because some guys sponsored by a company told you it's "better??" But when you ask the same guy about tracking, "oh no, I have a kid now" or "I just detailed my car." or "i just got new tires."
