Wheel and Tire Upgrade:
This is a change I've been waiting to do for a long time. Never been a fan of run flat tires, given their harsh ride over bumpy roads, and poor handling. A few months ago I decided on sticking with 18" wheels as I really got used to the ride comfort with my 400m wheels. My favorite 18s have always been the M3 513m wheels. After doing some research, I concluded that for the perfect xdrive setup, I needed to get a square front rim only package of 513m. Coupled with a square tire setup, I was able to both maintain perfect OD compared to stock and not have to mess with my speedometer/odometer.
The tire upgrade has been amazing. Unfortunately the Michelin AS4 tires have been on backorder but I have zero regrets about going with the DWS06+ tires. Would recommend these to anyone, great every day use tires.
Full specs are:
Wheels: BMW 513m 18x9 +29 (all 4 corners)
Tires: Continental DWS06 Plus - 255/40/18
Suspension: OEM xdrive Msport suspension
