Latest plan is to swap the X for a 640d gran coupe.... ::)

Not specifically as they only do 3s and 5s, not the x. I also have an x6 on 20s. Currently have duelers RFT and the ride is doing my head in... Nearly swapped it for a cayenne, and have thought about a RRS, but love the 6 and don't want to p#ss anymore money against the wall.... Have thought about ...

Thanks Slim. The main reason for the change is ride comfort. Spoke to Birds BMW to see what they'd recommend and they said continentals are the way forward.

Getting a bit fed up with the ride comfort, but love the car.....  :blink:

Anybody tried the Dunlop quatromaxx?

Keen to move from the RFTs in the hope of improving the ride

Why didn't you try non-RFTs? I'm going to lose mine, or trade for a new RRS...

Ssdd Motorsport ...

Mine feels smother on Shell than supermarket.... Probably in my he'd though!

If the price is relatively similar I'd choose shell or BP

Thanks. With swiftcover so will give them a call.

Think I'm going for Dunlop quatromaxx as they seem to have the best ratings. 4 corners for just under a grand from formula 1.

Didn't like the XFR. Brutal performance but thought the cabin lacked bmw quality, very poor screen/sat nav arrangement!

::) test driving an XFR later......

:noexpression: nobody able to offer advice?

Possibly not. The X was an itch I had to scratch, but the ride is far harsher than expected in real life.... Saying that, it is a great car and I can do many 000s of motorway miles and not feel jaded at all.....

Guys, Thinking about swapping my RfTs on my E71 as the ride comfort around town isn't great on 20's. Looking at Dunlop QuatroMAXX from formula1 which will set me back c.£1k. This is a well trodden path on other series, but have many done this on E70/71? And if so, is the difference worth a grand? ...

Get the discount, sign the finance papers and then cancel the following day. It'll cost you a fee plus some interest so depends on the level of discount. I did this on the missus old Q5.....

You can get a lot cheaper rate on the high st. Try Sainsburys..... You'll also save an arrangement fee.

Cheers guys....

Find it's a real marmite car! I love the look and style, but find the reactions of others interesting.....

Think non RFTs are the way to go. I think less than 20s wouldn't look right in the arch.
