Who has 18" wheels with non run-flats in the Seattle area?

3X3=5 · 08-16-2011, 05:56 PM

Fellow E90posters, I'm looking for someone with 18" wheels, stock or aftermarket, who wouldn't mind going for a quick comparison ride. I currently have 19" VMR 701s on my E90 and the ride is just too rough now that I have a kid. I think it may be time to drop down from 19"s to 18"s but I'd like to give it a try before I buy new wheels. So if you're in the Seattle area please PM me. Thanks.

Dan

hmm, I have 18" zsp wheels w/ Hankook v12's on the front and Dunlop Direzza's on the rears.. The only memory of having RFT's was that the ride was a lot stiffer. I would never go back to them. Now.. The only thing would be to find some time to meet up..

Agree get rid of the run flats. Have 18s with some conti dws and the ride is so smooth compared to my runflats. Drop em and you won't regret it.

Only had a flat once in the 16 years I've been driving so not too concerned about it.
