new wheels/bigger wheels?

[VishalTB]

sooo i don't like my rfts and i want to get non rfts... i have a 335xi 4dr manual and i already got one flat which was replaced and now i have a f*c*ing bubble on another tire... i want to get rid of them once the tire with the bubble is done...

i have the sports package so different winter and summer tires... does anyone know if the winter tires are rfts as well?

any suggestions for decent performance non-rfts? and also i was considering size of wheels...

are bigger tires better? or how does that work performance wise...?? and what do you guys suggest for my car?


some enlightenment please. :D

I too dumped the RFT's. Absolutely the one thing that ruined an otherwise fun vehicle. Right now i'm using Yokohama's S-Drives. Tirerack reviews were encouraging, and actual use do not disappoint. VERY quiet/comfortable, very "grippy", and zero to no drift on bad freeways. We have an '07 328i also with the Sport package.

I thought i'd also mention that this car is a weekend car, and we always carry an air pump in case we have to limp to the nearest tire repair shop.

Good luck,
Paolo

I definitely recommend getting rid of the RFTs. The stiff side wall can be quite uncomfortable and in terms of performance, they are sub par to say the least.

I went with Dunlop Wintersports for my snows...and I love 'em. I got 17's instead of 18's and keep them mounted on separate wheels.
