these 328's don't have a spare. That's why they get runflats from the factory.


Psh first thing I did when I got my new car was remove the spare + tools because RaceKarWeightSavings bruh

Really expensive tires to be putting on a low-end 3-Series lol. I had a car with R19 Pilot Sport A/S 3's (was on the bigger end of R19s I think) and I was quoted over $1600 after tax to replace them. My dad worked for Michelin so I could have got them for like $1000 but still. Ouch. I'm sure it would be over $1000 to put 3-Series sized tires on.

run-flats are a waste of money IMO

take the best run-flat you have now, find a spare rim to put it on, and get 4 brand new tires with the warranty, (assuming where you are has that option) my tires do, if literally ANYTHING happens to them, i can just take it in and get the tire replaced no questions asked.

They should be like 150-200 each at tire rack. I used to have a site bookmarked but lost it. Only cost like 700 for all 4x for my Benz. Figured a BMW should be no different

What for R16 Pilot Sport A/S? Around $200 sound's about right for the smallest R16s. Mine would have been over $360 a tire.

I've always hated all season tires. The worst of both worlds with the best of neither. If i lived a few thousand miles farther North i would have summer tires and a spare set of winters.
