LIQUI MOLY Engine oil

LiquiMoly is great oil. They offer oils that meet brand specific certifications like BMW’s LL-01 or GM’s LL-A and LL-B. So they’re a great option for cars with specific requirements.

Pros: great option, specific requirements
Vehicle: BMW

OEM BMW Oil filter

I pay 220 for M2 Comp. 7 quarts of oil and filter. Yeah it may be a high but I prefer peace of mind from a reputable Indy shop.

Pros: peace of mind
Cons: price may be high

MOTUL Engine oil

I pay about that. Quality oil and filters cost money. Many shops price oil changes as a loss leader. Euro oil changes are not sold this way, you pay the true price of the service (roughly $80 in supplies, half an hour of labor). I pay ~$160, But you get quality oil in return.

Pros: quality oil in return

Bilstein Strut assembly

Installed Bilstein B4 Struts and Shocks all around @ 80-85k miles. The car feels very planted. I drive 90-100MPH (140-160kph) daily for up to an hour, and I can tell you that it does not feel like it crashes into potholes or bumps like people say. The rebound on the struts are a tad far but that’s at high speeds and takes a quite a launch for it to rebound as far as I’m saying.

Pros: car feels very planted
Cons: rebound a tad far

Mileage: 96000 km

Kumho Tires

I’ve had good luck with “value” level Kumhos and Generals. Currently I drive a used BMW with over 300hp that came with budget Kumhos. They were brand new so I kept them. When they wore out I replaced them with expensive Continentals. I absolutely noticed the difference in quality

Pros: noticed the difference in quality

ADVAN Tires

  • Grip:
  • Noise:
  • Ride comfort:
Rating 4.0

Yes, they are good for the price. They last a while, but aren’t as grippy as other 200tw tires.

They do give great driver feedback due to stiff sidewalls, but this comes at the addition of road noise.

On track they come up to temp nice, and are gentle as they reach the edge of traction. They also don’t turn to ice when overheating, they just slowly start getting slippery.

Overall for the price, if you can only afford 1 set of tires, I’d recommend.

Pros: good for the price
Cons: road noise, less grippy

Hankook Tires

Also in Colorado with 50e. Have 21-inch wheels with factory Hankook “all season” performance run flats. Just ordered a set of Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5s for winter to replace the Hankooks that perform like I’m on an ice rink with bald tires…

Pros: for winter
Cons: perform like on ice
Vehicle: BMW X5
