About tire size

winsome · 02-15-2012, 10:18 PM

two choice 1:Pilot Super Sport F:225/40/18 R:255/35/18 (SUMMERTIRE)
2:continental DWS F:225/40/18 R:255/35/18(4SEAS)

Which one it`s better for 128i

Thanks

Depends how you define "better". Closest to OE size for speedometer accuracy, best lateral grip, best for the snow, etc.

Better for what?

Normal dayly driving, summer and winter below 0 degree not for snow

Thanks

1) don't think this is the right forum
2) summer tires aren't made for below 0 degrees weather. that being said i've been running them with no problem with our weather. any hint of snow/ice is bad news though
