I'd personally get the Toyo T1-R tires. I had T1-S on my last car and these are the T1-R is the replacement.

A/S i guess as in All Season vs. Summer performance, right? I guess it makes sense to go with the A/s being my car is going to be the xi model.. Do you guys know if they are any more/less susceptible to bubbles?

I think im going to order the PS A/S... is the ride generally rougher on all seasons versus non all season? this is my first awd car so im still unsure about the ride quality and how every change will affect it.

Hi NES!
Congratulations on your new BMW OEM 128 rims! I have Toyo Proxies 4 on my e60 530i and I am very satisfied with them, 3000 miles and wearing great, with no road noise, and excellant handling on both dry and wet payments. (I paid $750.00, installed with road hazard warranty from Kaufman Tire, with Lifetime Balancing and rotation, ((that came with it as a promo package at no extra charge)), the only thing was I had them installed and balanced for $200.00 at my BMW dealership)
Hope this helps.
Sincerely,
R. Presley
