The new M3 wearing Michelin PS2s! ;-)

zamboni · 06-03-2006, 10:40 AM

All current M3 runs on Michelin PS or PS2 depending on the model year and the don't have spare either, just the mobile kit for emergency use only.

Asiann · 06-03-2006, 11:37 AM

If the M3's can run on them then the 325/330 can definately run with them too!

canucklion · 06-03-2006, 11:49 AM

bmwexecutive's got them on his 330

btw, great find on the mini's M mobile kit, it's a lot cheaper than bmw's, and I bet it's the same shit or quite similar.

ALPINE6SPD · 06-03-2006, 11:52 AM

does the tire size say 265/40/18?

Asiann · 06-03-2006, 11:55 AM

He is actually the one that swayed me over from the Goodyear F1 GDS-D3 and his post! You would think that since the Mini Coopers were sold along with BMW's they would have the same kit. $59.95 is much better than the $75-$170 I saw online. How crazy to pay for a smiple 12v pump with some goo?

canucklion · 06-03-2006, 12:06 PM

I know, fuckers #$#$
same thing with the p21s and s100 carnuba wax, they're made by the same company and same stuff, but the p21s is for the 'car market' and is more expensive than the s100 "marketed for harleys). Guess which one I bought? haha S100

Yup, it's a little wider in back than what's on my 330i. I've got 255/35/18 in the rear. The sidewall is a tiny bit smaller on my 330i too.

Asiann · 06-03-2006, 12:38 PM

You were able to get stock sizes right? For the 330i.

DallasBimmer · 06-03-2006, 01:08 PM

This sounds pretty useful also:

E90Fleet · 06-03-2006, 01:49 PM

E60 M5 test cars also had Michelin PS2, but production cars all come with Continental Sport Contacts

No M5 anywhere comes from the factory with RFT

If it has RFT its not a M5

E90Fleet · 06-03-2006, 01:53 PM

For info: in Europe the 18" E90 Sport wheels come in runflat Michelin PS2 or the Bridgestones

Sure was. By the way, get the ContiComfortKit from Tire Rack for $75. Not the mini cooper one. It's better.

Asiann · 06-03-2006, 05:44 PM

Better as in how?

firstkill · 06-03-2006, 06:04 PM

goo and a compressor u can pick up at walmart for even less...

if its just going to be tossed in a hidden compartment... hope u never have to use it anyways

i got the one from tirerack. By continental, $75 bucks...exactly the same thing

Asiann · 06-03-2006, 09:50 PM

I was going to check that out as well. I'm also going to pick up a plug kit in case of no ervice avail and cheaper to fix by yourself. Packing a Gerber in case I need to pull out a nail.

zamboni · 06-04-2006, 12:23 AM

Ifyou use slime for the mobilkit you will have a heck of a time to clean up your rims afterward.
