Doc..stuggling to make the right choice
Wife's 325 Ci C. Gets driven a WHOPPING 10 miles a day. But then she went to a show and HAD to have those M3 18s so we found a nice set of four fronts;.
Priorities :Taken from the Tire Rack Site. 1) Noise 2) Handling 3) Wear. These are to be summer tires only. I really dont like these Korean made brands (Nexen, Hankook, Kuhmbo, Nitto. nothing racially intended of course)but have had good luck with Michellin, Contis, BF Goodrich, etc. These are 18s all around and she drives like a little old lady going to church on sunday. But the rims are sittin nekkid in my garage awaiting skins and pretty soon the weather will warm up. I'd even take some GOOD GENTLY used ones for the amount of driving she's doing... Be gentle with me please (price wise of course). And do I need anything else for fitment? Dont think so cause we didnt get the staggered rears so we wouldnt have to roll the rear fenders. Thanks, Ed in NJ Also, how do we handle installs, roadside warranties etc. One of my buds got seriously peeved at a local Tire Barn in NJ that wanted to charge him for the warranty and did a pretty crappy install to, alledgedly got 2 blems from you fellas. Thanks Pard (we say that in Southern NJ!) Last edited by edco : 02-26-2008 at 03:54 AM.

My favorites would include Yokohama AVIS H4S and BFG Super Sport AS for durability and noise levels. The summer only compounds would get around 20K miles of life, where the all season tires will get closer to 30K. Click on the link for more info;

Installation would be handled (if desired) by one of our many partners (http://www.tirerack.com/installer/index.jsp) They may be able to offer some kind of radside assistance as an "add on" to the installation cost, perhaps.
Best sellers for my customers in a "summer only" compound (around 20K miles of durability) would be the Bridgestone RE050A Pole Position, Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 and Yokohama S Drive.
