Re: The great tyre debate... (20 inchers need only reply)

Re: BMW 40d compared to a 35d what is the main difference
How do you tell if you have adaptive drive? I have a 58 x6 3.5d? Did it come as standard? Mine doesn't have the air suspension on the rear if that's what it is?

Re: Changed from run flats to non runflat
Had the new tyres on a few days now, seems to be a lot smoother and doesn't tram line as much. I have not really pushed it but I can't notice any difference in handling in the corners. Now I am not sure weather or not to get the space saver kit or just stick with the can of foam sealer.

Changed from run flats to non runflat
Hi all, I have today just had my runflats changed to non runflats. It was only the fronts that had worn but I thought I would give a full new set a try and will probably stick the rears on eBay at some point. I have just been to check all the tyre pressures at the local bp and put the recommended 2 ...
