Tires Falken or OEM BMW

I’m guessing he is referring to the falken rt660. I use them on my fiesta st and am actually going to order another set next week. Pretty good tires for the price, great dry performance but wet performance is not great.

HD thrust arms are an improvement without too much sacrifice. Better shocks as well. I’ve found tires make a huge difference with the E39.

I went a different direction and fit bigger tires on stock suspension. Looks like they are about 1" bigger in diameter and a little narrower. It was real tight in there so I wouldn't have gone any bigger than the 215/65/16s I ended up with (Falken Wildpeak AT, late model Audi rims) on factory setup.

Narrow, low-profile tires aren't as forgiving over potholes, especially when riding on the 20" wheels.

The tires are very nice; comfortable and quiet, very good in all the conditions the Northeast brings.

Pulled the trigger on the Falken WILDPEAK A/T 255/55R19 much beefier tires. No way the Ms. can curb rash the rims now.

I’ve had Falken Pro G5 all-season tires on my Fit for a year now, and for the price, they are very impressive. They grip surprisingly well when taking corners, and they haven’t experienced any dry rot or cracking despite the hot weather here in Texas.

Ran the 660’s this weekend. Like the feel and the grip on my Camaro. They did well with a heavy car.

I run 235/35/19 on a 19x8.5 up front. Koni coils, occasionally rubs on hard cornering or uneven pavement, but I'm pretty low so... Falken 452's

Car was on all seasons that were almost new(falken 912's). Going down the highway at 35 in 4th gear, I was running about 1k rpm and any touch of the gas would spin the tires. Starting on a hill was impossible.
