Hey, don't knock it 'til you've tried it.

These are lovely dunked in a dollop of Keith :lol: https://l7ivla.db.files.1drv.com/y4mNiYbhZkJ1bS6nG52AsWDn6JzvbsfJqkxgDBeMt4NYlxL7Prk3zYePE6AISIyh98yC09BweHN4mv1qcGxfVLOLGTX60bOPdB3bSLoKVCZZLJvG5u3IZexcduugnshGtS7gbNlsdxxWuNzW1HwSoA0UPRJm-qWofwq5Itq2o7xYP_iZATG9qZc7etfZ7EKEjEBOEN0SM6GwY-jbsGkwDSDP...

I'm struggling to find tyres for the 4 Series, plenty in the front size but only a limited selection in the rear size. What size are the rears? 255/40 18 the only ones I can find are the ones you went for MP S4s Well I can highly recommend them so far. Be interesting to see what they are like in th...

What size are the rears?

Zonda, as I said in my last post I am led to believe mixing RF's and standard tyres on the same chassis is not a good idea. Obviously this is only based on the internets opinion. Jobbo, my thoughts exactly! In other news, maximum attack mode is far less scary now, for that alone it has been a worthw...

Having had them fitted yesterday morning I can report the following Much less road noise More compliant ride over our shite roads Doesn't feel as twitchy when pressing on Haven't had any incidents (yet) where it feels like the rears have completely lost contact with the road However, I would say ste...

Salad Cream is gross anyway, just get rid of it. I'm pretty sure it only became popular because mayonnaise sounded too foreign :lol: Liking or not liking the product is a subjective thing, it is more to do with the banal drivel these people trot out as justification and pandering to fuckwits the be...

Yep, very soon to be apparently. Going to be rebranded 'Sandwich' Cream which sounds all sorts of wrong.

Some of the quotes in that article are cringeworthy justification. Change for changes sake

All ordered from Blackcircles as they had a £40 off 4 Michelin PS4's. Going to be fitted at local tyre place Thursday morning. I can see both sides of the insurance question but will probably not mention it for now. Also I found this comment on National tyres guidance regarding whether to change RF'...

Older car but I changed the runflats on my Z4 for standard Bridgestones and it felt like a different car afterwards. I didn’t notice a massive change in ride but the handling was SO much more progressive. No more back end skipping about over manhole covers mid-corner and I had way more confidence t...

Thanks chaps. I think I will take the plunge.

So thinking about wider issues, no room in the car for a spare so if one of them springs a leak what are the best options out there for a temp fix to at least get me to a garage, massive blowout aside?

Do you think I need to advise insurers?

The M135i is due some new boots. I want to fit Michelin PS4's but they don't appear to be available as run flats. There are conflicting discussions all over the internet about whether it is good or not to change from OEM fitment RF's to standard tyres so thought I would turn to the great and good of...

(I've never even been able to absorb what gap insurance is tbh)

Don't get me started!

Talking of Citroen's, one of these last Friday near Haywards Heath in white and being driven with some 'vigueur'

You need to check your clock

I've seen a few Bentaygas now and they look decent. Part of me wants one. Wife would love a Bentayga. I like them, but there are plenty of other things on the list before I’d spend that much on an SUV! The Rolls is very disappointing, but I guess UK taste is a very small consideration compared to h...

The original post has confused me. It makes sense up to the point where you talk about something classic and fun to potter around in, before making a wild left turn to "A2 v Twingo". OP doesn't make any sense at all. Talks about getting older and buying more dull cars using a 400hp Volvo ...

Near Goodwood yesterday :shock: https://az6dkw.db.files.1drv.com/y4mydzP6qFL0dW5lCgoplalt0UAjbXX0rHBDZRuyJv4jgHC7y7t73eY5FyVHYeCRURxGpYsUdx9vGSQvAy2pEdGFZK18QXctqazxjh_dR6ObC41hOU_rKY7yXRLtkQjB6TSuKTvrlLWzpzSz0bRkL1B1_6tHhYdKsjTJc6bDpG8rb1BrGUQFbijDIFnWmBPES2il5VsNg-MrDMi7L1smxoYdQ?width=576&hei...
