#237 of 246 Re: New Winter tires on a 335i [qali] by qali Nov 01, 2009 (5:21 am)
Replying to: qali (Oct 12, 2009 12:48 pm) Ok, so I put on a set of 205/50-17 winter tires. Any tips on what the tire pressure should be? The owner's manual and the door label only lists the pressure for stock tires, ie, 225/45-17. Replies to this message: kyfdx (Nov 01, 2009 6:01 am)

Replying to: qali (Nov 01, 2009 5:21 am) 205-50-17 should have the same pressures.... same sidewall height as the 225/45-17...
#239 of 246 Snow tires for 2009 335xi coupe? by dmargo2 Nov 05, 2009 (7:41 am)
I live in Wisconsin...and need to get into work even with bad weather. I have a new 335xi coupe which I love; came with Continental RFT as "all season". My question is has anyone put snows on a 335xi coupe and been happy or unhappy. I've never put snows on an awd car; but from doing some reading it seems like it might be a good idea and will take a good 7-10K miles/year off my other tires. Just wondering if others have been happy with that "investment"...thanks Dave Replies to this message: srs_49 (Nov 05, 2009 9:46 am) upstatedoc (Nov 06, 2009 10:21 am)

Replying to: dmargo2 (Nov 05, 2009 7:41 am) I can't speak for the 335xi, but when we had our 2002 Subaru Outback wagon, we did just fine with a good set of all season radials (not performance summer tires) in up to 6-8" of snowfall.

Replying to: dmargo2 (Nov 05, 2009 7:41 am) I've never owned an AWD sedan until i bought my '09 328ix recently. We have(had) 2 Acura MDX's w/ AWD and only used the all seasons that came with it,, granted those all seasons seem a little "chunkier" than the Conti's on my 3. The 335ix comes w/ the 17" rims no? They may be a little worse in the snow than my 16". I'll let you know how my all seasons performed in the spring!
#242 of 246 e46 rims for e90 by dhanley Nov 27, 2009 (12:17 pm)
I own a sport package 335i e90. A friend has unknown 17' rims with snow tires from his e46. The tires are 225/50/R17.   Is this likely to fit on my 335i? I would like to not be driving a giant ice skate this winter. Replies to this message: kyfdx (Nov 28, 2009 7:18 am)

Replying to: dhanley (Nov 27, 2009 12:17 pm) If they fit his E46, they probably won't fit your E90..   Correct size is 205/50-17 or 225/45-17.. His tires are too tall (if that size is correct).
#244 of 246 What is the reasonable cost for Wheel and Tire Protection package cost in N by raja6 Nov 29, 2009 (12:56 pm)
I was offered wheel and tire protection for my 328xi for 1995 and came down to 1700 within 10 seconds and I was informed that i have to take a decision then and there only. Due to cheap tricks played by the dealor, i might be getting my vehicle next week.   My questions here are # What will be the reasonable price buyers are paying for 16" wheels. # Can i take this after i took the delivery of my vehicle .if yes , is there any time limits to take this?   Thanks for any advice in this regard .

Replying to: raja6 (Nov 29, 2009 12:56 pm) That seems outrageously expensive to me.   I paid $599 for the wheel/tire protection plan on my 2009 G37S. Good for 5 years. Replies to this message: raja6 (Dec 04, 2009 5:03 am)

Replying to: srs_49 (Nov 29, 2009 5:04 pm) Can anyone suggest me any Dealers in NJ to get 16" wheel and Tire Protection package for 5 years with reasonable rate. I am taking my vehicle from my dealer today and my dealer is not interested to reduce earlier mentioned amount. Thanks Raj
