I don't think that BMW will run away from RUN FLATS any time soon... I've had them since my '09 E90 and now on my '12 F25 X3, honestly I haven't had any problems... I can say that the only problem is the cost of each tire.
Are you planning on getting a GC???

I'm planning on getting one of the three next summer for a Euro delivery. I have an 08 E93 that I just put on a set on Michelin Pro Pilots. The ride is very smooth and the noise is drastically cut. Just no spare tire But right now, I'm doing my homework on the 4.

My 435i is on the way back from ED. As soon as it arrives will change tires to non-RFT. RFT will be stored for lease return or after new tires are completely bold.

Agreed. Also, they are getting better. On my 2005 E60, I had the Dunlop run-flats they were using at the time. They were loud, rough, and horrible. I looked forward to putting my snow tires on, just to get away from them. On my 2013 F10, the run-flats are really not objectionable.

Hi All,
This is my first post on here. Just took home a 2015 435i Sport line in Jet Black, traded in a 2009 335i Coupe with Sport pack that I loved. Wondering if anyone knows where you can buy aftermarket trim pieces for the 4. The side gill vents on this car are in silver and they stand out a bit too much for my liking. Also, curious if you know how it may affect the transaction when I turn in the car at the end of the lease. Thanks! Last edited by JRF32435; 09-18-2014 at 11:16 AM.. Reason: Add pic |

The M badges on the fender are available everywhere except North America. I am in the States and was forced to order the badges and put them on myself. I also got painted reflectors and painted Bimmerangs as that's the way they deliver in Europe as well, looks a lot cleaner. |

I've got RWD, not XDrive, but I was parked on the side of a crested road, tilted the car a bit not to mention the morning low sun directly shining into the wheel wells. The front spoiler of the Gran Coupe M-Sport is a mere 5" off the ground, so the car does sit quite low. Photo above taken on a flat surface, I'll shoot some more when the weather improves. |

Hey guys, new member here! Happy to meet you all. I wanted to make a thread about it but its probably not allowed yet because i'm new. So i wanted to ask about the carbon brakes. I'm about to buy a 428i and i was wondering whether i should get them. I dont intend to take the car for track days or whatever but damn it i kind of want to have them. Are they worth it? Will they somewhat pay for themselves with less maintance and more durability? How's their feel when you brake?
Also, 18 or 19"? I like the look of the 19 ones but i'm worried about ride quality and bumps. |
