I'm near the wear bars on my Contis now at ~7000 miles. While I am excited to replace them, a part of me loves how stupidly easy it is to get the car sideways at low speeds right now. It isn't practical or safe but boy it's fun.

I'm planning on making the switch to PS4S in a month or two. Curious what sorts of differences you felt with the new tires.

Also - not today, but I installed the hood insulation from an m240i and WOW what a difference. Not a cheap piece but much quieter. Have some other sound deadening coming from Germany that will be here in two weeks. More exhaust, less wind and tire noise 👍🏼👍🏼
Looking real good! Just in time for the sun

LOL... I destroyed my rears in less then 6500 miles.

I must disclose I absolutely hate Conti's.

However I love Roundabouts.

Roof was done with Avery Dennison's CF wrap and XPEL PPF over it. From what I saw, the PPF is really what made it look similar to the CF on the M Performance parts.

I added some M perf grill stripes; just vinyl ones. The color match is VERY good.

They were a touch painful to get on properly, but look pretty good now. I'm not quite sure if I like the look, but if I change my mind, I'm back to stock in about 3 minutes and $12 poorer. I can live with that.

Oh, and yeah, the car is filthy. I just got back from a 400 mile trip that saw some higher speeds (including 86 in a 60 that thankfully only got me a warning) and I haven't washed it yet.

255s fit on the stock front wheels right? Can you go square and do 265s on the front wheels?

So I'm cruising at 75 mph down I65 towards Indianapolis to watch our daughter's regatta this morning. In the next lane a guy slides up to me in a brand new Kia sedan. Don't recall which model but had a big red S after the model name on the trunk. Sports version I guess. After staying next to me for 10 seconds he floors it racing way out ahead. I smile and decide not to make him feel bad about his new car, and keep the cruise set at 75.

Could have been a Stinger. If it was he would have given you a run for your money assuming both cars are stock. You would have beat him for sure but you would have had to work at it.

Pulled my car out of winter hibernation today. 32 degrees out which made for fun with summer tires. Felt great.
