Changed from 108s to ACS all round with a square 8.5 setup with Michelin 255 x 35 x 18" Pilot Sports RUN FLATS. Yes so OK I've gone the other way and returned to RFTs but there is a significant improvement in handling over the original Bridgestone RFTs used by BMW. No longer a need for a spare in the back and Mrs J certainly happier when she uses that in the event of a tyre failure she can at least get to a garage - and certainly I feel better when on a continental jaunt if we get a flat - sacrifice v benefits (sounds like a marriage... :P )
Spacers on front 5mm and rear 13mm as recommended by ACS - no rubbing issues and certainly fill the arches nicely.

Sorry for lack of responses, just been away in Iceland for a week - and the nightmare/journey from hell getting to the airport yesterday through a whiteout blizzard at 3am (3 hours to do less than 40 miles)and having to dig ourselves out of a snowdrift on one mountain section! Will post more pics/respond to queries etc once I get over the PTSD of the drive...... :cry:



....only choice was Top Up or Top down :P
