18" All-season Runflats?
I really want to get the Sport Package when I order the E90, but I live in the NYC metro area... Because of this, I would not be able to keep the performance tires... I don't have anywhere to switch out or store tires, so I was wondering if all season run flats were a option for me to buy after getting the car? I currently have them on my E46 330i with 17" tires, and I have never had a problem during the winter months.
Thanks Last edited by Licoeur; 04-03-2005 at 10:51 AM.. |

I'll say last year I used 18" All season tires and got around just fine in the winter. Good all seasons are really good and will do you just fine in a typical NY winter. So go for it with no worries !

Same here.
I live on Long Island, getting the 330i with sport package... Can't keep the runflat performance tires in the winter, so I will probably swap the tires for all-season runflats. I currently use 16 inch all seasons on my 325i, and they worked just fine in the winter even in the snow. I don't think winter tires are necessary. |

Guys, 18" all season runflats are rare right now, but they exist. The 745 can be ordered with 245/45R18 All-Season SBR Run-Flat BSW tires so they do exist. Quackman is probably right you'll see more and more of them availble since a lot of cars are going to run-flats.

if you're looking 17" nonRFT All-Seasons, i highly recommend Pilot-Sport AS. rated very well, check tirerack for all reviews + mine 5 star rating. costco is the best price Ive seen, while discount tire online cost second for their free shipping.
.................................................D isregard if you looking for RFT

I will consider those as well......Did you get all the same size tires or did you stick with 225/fronts 255/rears OEM spec???? That was another question...
