Very cool site. Might be worth paying up for BMW's rims. Will check that out how much better than my dealer in the a.m. Was wondering if I can put snows on the 124's (different front and rear and I know little about tire sizing) or if I have to go with 123's |
I bought the Dunlop Winter Sport M3s and installed them a couple weeks ago - just got through the nasty snow storm here in Chicago a coupel days ago and the tires ran like a dream!!! My first set of winter tires and I will NEVER go back to all seasons in snow. Great traction and excellent stopping capability. I even blew by a few SUVs, which I still can't figure out how.
I love 'em! |

My 18" Dunlop wintersports performed very well in 4-7 in of snow this week. :thumbsup: |
