    Which of these should I get for my E46

    Hello Guys,

    It is very good to be back to this wonderful informative forum !!

    I have a request for recommendation from you. I have a E46 , 2002 325i. I need a new set of tires. the ones i have on are very worn . so my budget is between $120-$150 per tire. but if you recommend me to increase it i might be able to .
    I was looking at few options two from Michelin , one Continental and one Hankook. my mechanic recommended Hankook for my car. but i'm wonder what do you think. Below are some links for the tires i was considering. if you think there is better ones for my budget let me know .
    I don't know if i gave you enough information . but here are some bullet points i don't know if they matter in deciding.
    1- i like the thin profile . i don't like when the tires are so chunky ( i don't know if that makes sense)
    2- good for all seasons.
    3- feels sporty , good grip , good handling.
    4- quite.
    5- good quality.

    these are some tires i was looking at . American tire depot in the LA region now have a buy three get forth for free . which i think is a great deal !?

    Eyad, welcome back!

    1- i like the thin profile . i don't like when the tires are so chunky ( i don't know if that makes sense) < - sidewall height # would rule the look.
    2- good for all seasons. < - how many seasons do you have in LA?! I don't think all that many.
    3- feels sporty , good grip , good handling.
    4- quite.
    5- good quality.


    You forgot about thread wear (UTQG in the links you posted) - it would dictate what kind of ratio of #2, 3 and 4 you can get.
