Guys, decided to switch to normal tyres. Spoke with Chin Wah from Kiliney Rd. They'll do the switch from run flats to Michelin PS2 at an additional cost of SGD 700.00. I know it's really not cost effective, but what do you think of his proposal?

That's a pretty good deal. Michelin PS2 is sold in US $300+ per tire. but keep in mind the tread wear is bad for Michelin PS2.

Edlee, I think its a good deal. I traded my 16" 134 plus brand new tyres for only $600. I heard the PS2s are great, I am going to wear them after my Rosso. Wow, 545i, I guess it would be going for spa at Bronzecarman on the first day huh?

So, where can I get my car waxed with Zymol Destiny? I have also lately started getting a stale smell from the aircon when I first start my car in the morning. Anyone have this problem?

Hi dindae520i,

Welcome to the thread. Hey! you're into Pro-Audio? my brother-in-law's into it as well, in fact he has his own studio and composes and mixes music as part of this business.

Oh, and he just bought a 520i ! Taking delivery sometime next week!

Thanks guys for the warm welcome. Good to come across a forum where everyone gets to share locally. Anyway, Eggz, who's your brother-in-law? I might know him as the industry here is very small. I work mostly in China. Was stationed there for 5 years and recently moved back to Singapore.

Update....i've been in Vancouver for 5 days already and i've only seen 4 E60s on the road? wtf?

Mercs & Bimmers are harder to come by here surprisingly.

Edlee: can't wait to see your ride with the AC kit.

Yes, Tategoi. I have already fixed a date with Russel.

Dindae520I, Bronze Carmen is the one to go to. He's ex-PML and he's got plenty of good advise for you.

tategoi, I like the pics of your car in the gallery. Where did you get the carbon fibre emblem from?
