Hankook Tires

I run Hankook RS4s on my dedicated track M3. I street drive mine to tracks, including one 120 miles away. I get about 20 track hours out of them, which equals about 18 track days. The downside is they don't work great when cold, and when they heat cycle out they turn into bricks.

Pros: longevity is stellar, cheaper
Cons: not great when cold
Vehicle: BMW

Bosch Wiper blades
Tangent_
  • Wipe quality:
Rating 5.0

Icons are my favorite off the shelf blades, otherwise if I've got the time to order them online I'll always go for PIAA Super Silicone.

Pros: favorite off the shelf
Vehicle: BMW M4

EBC Brake pads
Bobbler23
  • Braking:
  • Dust:
Rating 4.0

Brakes - EBC. Tried others either didn't like the feel or they didn't last long, or made a mess of the wheels (I do a lot of miles daily) so stick with those now.

Pros: good feel, long lasting
Cons: others didn't last

Bilstein Shock absorbers
spicygrow
  • Body bounce:
  • Bottoming:
Rating 4.0

I can still rip sweepers at 120mph like my friend with Bilstein B6's, but my car rides so much better over the small uneven bits of pavement.

Pros: better ride quality

Mitsuboshi Turbocharger

I replaced mine at 96k for the same issue. The wastegate gets warped and eroded and does not build enough boost. Mitsubishi is the original manufacturer that built them for BMW. I replaced mine with the MHI (Mitsubishi) big turbo because it was literally a hundred or so dollars more expensive.

Pros: big turbo, good price
Cons: wastegate gets warped
Vehicle: BMW
Mileage: 96000 km

Firestone Tires

As other have mentioned, that tread issue does kinda remind me of how my Firestone snow tires looked after a couple of summers driving on them and doing a fair amount of burnouts and drifting in my 350HP E23.

Cons: tread issue after misuse
Vehicle: BMW
