Not sure if you read all my different reviews on the new car so in case you haven't, here are some links:

First impressions (not too much detail):

Full review (read more than post #1 since I updated information further down the thread as people asked questions, etc.):
http://forums.e60.net/index.php?showtopic=42608

Also, in the thread I linked to above, post #97 contains a post-break-in mini review:
http://forums.e60.net/index.php?s=&sho...st&p=456046

Does that help?

Perhaps the Reader's Digest version of the two threads...


Edit: Of course now that I've posted this, I realize that I may have to explain what Reader's Digest is to some of our younger members!

What is it? is it perhaps something you read to help you digest when you're constipated sitting on top of the toilet?

I've read your previous posts, but now that you have several thousand miles on your baby has anything changed from your reviews or are you all smiles?

Why don't you just get non RF Michelin PS2's?
