Unless you have got those defective Dunlops like what they got in the US. In that case it will be cover by Dunlop, not BMW.

Yes, Master. You really should "Delay No More"!!! 
I paid $2000 each for the 19", and Shield just got his 17" PS2 for around $1800. I think the Goodyear are pretty much the same price as the Michlien.

After been in your car, I think the non RF are definitely worth the change.

go for Dunlop Sportmaxx (sun hing quoted 1150, is that right mic), RE050 , PS2 also good. Goodyear RS-02 is a good buy too.
I just got the PS2 on, feel so good now. It is like a different car.

That's totally wrong. I used all my original PDC sensors. Any pics of your ride?
Hm. Something came to my mind. When we compared the PDC sensors from the M-kit and the Non M-kit, they looked a little bit different. On the M-Kitted car, the sensors has a extra ring on the sensor itself, probably there is some kind of adapter that comes with the M-kit. Let me dig up the M-Kit installation guide and get back to you later.

looks like they traying to con U Fu*king killl them. 
As I stated in the above post, check the part number for the M5 PDC sensor vs regular PDC sensor since your kit is a real M5 ones. If they are different then you have to get new sensors. But the old one is a good idea to keep around.

Lalu is installing the real M5 rear, not M Tech rear like us. But I never heard anyone have problems installing the PCD sensors. Better ask other forum member with the real M5 rear for more info! Hope it can be fix soon!

I saw a E60 with an M kit and ACS type V rim yesterday. Doesn't goes with it I think, type IV is better.
