Gorgeous car! If you don't mind, what kind of discounts did you get? You said the other one had a markup.

Any difference in feel with the 20's on the one you test drove? More interested to see if you noticed a significant difference in steering feel and/or handling than ride quality.

I initially thought that the 19's looked too small, but the more i look i prefer the 19 msport rim over the 20". plus i live in NYC with their crappy roads and occasional snow, so i need the all weather tires and smaller rims. great looking car, looks much better than the non M-sport i saw today at the dealer.

The ride on the 19's is great. It was also great in the 20's... Slightly more stiff but nothing dramatic. My other car is an F10 with KWV3 coilovers so comparing the 2 is a bit difficult for me. You won't be disappointed in the ride at all. |

My E70's has/had 20's in Chicago and I have never had an issue since 2007. I originally had 255 All seasons on my 2007 but I swapped them out for summer 20's and the 19's became my winters. Tough to beat that stance with 315's on the back. Yes the AS did work just fine but the Winters just work sooo much better. Especially in Chicago where you have to worry more about the other driver and the evasive maneuver to avoid them.

I've only been to Chicago once and didn't drive myself at all... So I can only assume you have better roads than we do. I live in the suburbs and still bend rims for a living on our finest potholes.

Which begs the question... How are the newer run flats, in general? Back in '07, my wife had an '08 330i w/ run flats. In addition to the horrible ride, they couldn't hold air. My test drive of the M sport F15 was pretty comfortable and w/ little road noise. Can anyone comment on durability of run flats in the last 4 yrs? |

rmastale, have you seen anything on accessories (apart from floor mats)for F15? The cross bars for the roof rack, specifically... Either through BMW or via third party. Thanks, M |

So the 35 and the 50 now share the same shaped exhaust outlets? Last year the 35's had round outlets didnt they? I also noticed the smaller AC vents up front. Being from the south with 105-108 degree days, its something you have to keep in mind.
