Get some decent rubber on it, Them BCT's are s**t, even the wholesalers have stopped selling them......

Michelin have have had a price increase in march and pulled quite a bit of dealer support so expect the price to start rising. As a mid range, i'd recommend kumho or hankook.

I'm hearing good things about them from various tyre dealers. As one said to me though, it's always going to be a jack of all trades and never a master of one! I guess it all depends what you want from a tyre. If you want a tyre that's going to provide adequate grip in normal driving conditions...

whoever you used are not "specialists" if they didn't change the valves at time of fitting the tyres. If the tyres not punctured & it's not a faulty valve then I suspect the tyre bead isn't seated properly. Tyre off, clean the inside of the rim, apply bead sealer and refit the tyre & re-...

Unrelated question but what level of BMW warranty do you have? Also, do you have the BMW roadside breakdown service? I'm going to put one on my wife's 320D after seeing the service you've received from it - although it's unfortunate you've had to use it as much as you have! Lovely car, such a...

Good to see it's still out there. Looks well, should it ever be up for sale then please let me know. Was a great fun car!

Was lucky to be round these 2 last week...

Good tyre mate, just seen the size your after though and we don't make a KU39 in that size.

Kumho KU39's

I had a bloke fly from holland to buy a rover 220 turbo, it was a nail too! That was from ebay, he called me and I thought someone was messing about!

Tread carefully with tyreleader. I work in the tyre trade and I'm hearing a few negative things. Some of the stuff that's turning up isn't Approved for Europe by the tyre manufacturer. My my best mates the buying manager for Blackcircles, what do you want exactly mark and I'll get it sorted...

The label ratings on a budget tyre such as a landsail mean nothing at all. unless it's from a well known manufacturer then take them with a pinch of salt. I'm seeing Chinese stuff not fit for a wheelbarrow with b & b ratings....

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought that...!

I need that car in my life.

Had 2 of these, last one was a rev 3 turbo in Caribbean blue, previous to that was a rev 2 turbo in red. Great cars, will have another one day. yours looks to be in good nick, just be careful in it as others have said.
