    will avoid this tyre shop in the future.

    Sure... try 20" oversized rubbers. Rims can only get so heavy. The oversized tyres are the ones that add significant weight.

    Awkard Pedal & Posture Positioning... anyone?

    Oh believe me you aren't the only one who spends so much time adjusting the angle of your seat. The 3M mats slide all over the f***ing place, and over time all the crap gets stuck in there and it's hard to get them out and they develop a smell. I sworn not to ever use them again. The original...

    A long long time ago when this particular shop just started for maybe a year or less, I went to buy used BMW rims for my old ride (E90). The boss didn't seem too interested to sell the used rims as he said it was "owner consignment" and tried to upsell his new rims which I noticed was usually...

    Awkard Pedal & Posture Positioning... anyone?

    Awkard Pedal & Posture Positioning... anyone?

Part of this problem is that the gas and brake pedals are more offset to the right, whereas in other cars I've driven the brake is pretty much close to the center. I also left foot brake, so it is annoying that I have to sit in a slightly awkward position when...

    520D

    That is a facelift 520D. It has newer instrument panel, headlights, tailights, etc. Looks good. Note that owner has wrapped it in brown vinyl. Original paintwork is white. Pricing looks not bad too. I drive a 520D and it has been very good. No issues, getting average 13-14km/L with 50%...

    My 6-year old F10 - only time can tell

    The early batches for F10 (523i especially) had really bad suspension and the transmission software was a little laggy. Wiper fluid container slowly leaking is also a common problem. But later batches of F10 (around 2013) just before the LCI was released had these issues solved. Suspension is...
