Hello! I'm planning on buying my first Bimmer. Is this a good car ? Bmw 320i 2010 with 53,000 km (not miles) I live in Guatemala City. Thanks for your advice
Car comes with still decent run flats should i keep those when fully used or should I go with normal? I've been reading that driving becomes more confortable? |

To save you a bit of anguish...
It's "Bimmer", not "Beamer". A "Beemer" is a BMW motorcycle A "Beamer" is a) 1980's Yuppie misspelling of Beemer (and inappropriately applied to a BMW car); or b) a woman in a very cold room...

The non-RFTs are much more comfortable than the RFTs. Not to mention quieter and perform better.
If you don't mind replacing your tires pre-maturely, then go for it. You'll notice the difference.
