Goodyear Ultragrip Perf. Winters..

Thanks to Gill and tire rack I got the 225-40-18's all around and had them installed on my stock 135i wheels at a local shop...

All I can say so far is wow... The ride is much quieter(those RF's were LOUD)... Plus far less traction control coming on and spinning out from a stop in the cold wet weather here in PA...

No snow yet, but have had some ice and it's been no problem. I highly recommend these tires for those who don't have the flow to go out and replace the stock wheels as well...

:headbang:

I've also done the exact same and they work great!!! and cheap !! $1100 CDN once all said and done which is much cheaper than the local shops quoted me with $1700 just for tires.

Thanks GILL!

I think I am gonna give this set-up a try. It seems to be the best bang-for-the-buck. Thanks for the advice.:w00t:
