new tire shopping

Dominus · 02-11-2013, 04:06 PM

Simple thread just looking for opinions.

Right now my e90 LCI xdrive is ready for new tires for my VMR 718 18s, et35. M lowered on HR sports.

I ran kumho ecsta STP 235/40/18 last summer and they went well BT now I'm ready to step it up. I wanna do 245 with spacers if possible?

Looking at some KDWs, direzzos, rs3, or something else. Suggestions and comments wanted.

Thank you.

But are they really worth the cost for a daily driven 328?

Depends, since i have 17s hankooks after the rebate were about $450 while pss were $850 so i went hankook. It's my understanding that when you get to 18's and 19s the gap closes somewhat. IMO if you want a really good tire it's worth the extra, otherwise go the budget route.

OK then will 245 fit?

Man... i was almost set on Kdw's. Haha. So what makes these pss so much better then? And i will be doing 245 if they fit

Decided on the KDW instead since some OSS lights left my budget a little smaller. Overall I think I'll be happy.

Looks good! KDWs have such a cool tread pattern.
