I received similar advice on another forum. I guess I'll just have it cut/buffed/waxed/polished for a couple hundred bucks and see what I think....
The paint on my car is not in terrible condition, but it looks its age when you get up close. I don't have the energy or motivation to keep it waxed...
Answering my own question, I did find the 195/55/r15 BF Goodrich g-Force Sport Comp-2 that will fit. It won its comparison test at TR and has good...
This topic is discussed regularly on other bimmer forums. The latest news is that they should be coming out with a stage 1 suspension upgrade...
205/50s--a bit better in snow. It's not great in even light snow, so I thought I'd go more narrow for a bit of an edge there. It handles fine but not...
