Am 320i lci rwd, si nu am nevoie de xdrive. Daca ai anvelope de calitate poti sa mergi si la munte.
Rwd are costuri reduse de intretinere fata de xdrive, mai usor, mai eficient.
Pros: anvelope de calitate
Vehicle:
BMW
Regarding the X3M - I have about 9 months and 6k miles or so dailying mine. It is firm but I don't believe it's as punishing as most reviews mention. The thing is a monster man. I don't know why anyone would need anything more in a daily. It handles easily as good as my RS3 did and maybe even less body roll despite being much higher CoG and the RS3 didn't roll much either. It feels direct and definitely feels rear driven.
Pros: handles easily, feels rear driven
Cons: consumables, worse mileage
Vehicle:
BMW
Mileage: 9656 km
Skip the brake fluid flush. Go find tires elsewhere. I have a Macan and got non N rated all season tires. Way cheaper than what Porsche will sell you.
Pros: way cheaper
Vehicle:
Porsche
I used to daily my GT3 until it started feeling normal and lost that "specialness".
Pros: special driving experience
Cons: lost specialness
Vehicle:
Porsche 911
And one tire due to a bulge. The tire was not cheap ($500) but I let the dealership deal with it rather than getting it done cheaper elsewhere as I didn't want to drive on a massive bulge.
Pros: dealer dealt with it
Cons: tire was not cheap
Vehicle:
BMW
Mileage: 48000 km
I have a 2024 BMW IXM60 that came with run-flat tires. While driving around 40 mph, I hit a pothole and the run-flat instantly went flat and did not at all feel safe to drive on except for a couple blocks back to my home. I would not spend the extra money for run flats, did not find any benefit at all from it.
Pros: no benefit at all
Cons: instantly went flat
Vehicle:
BMW
Im 6000 miles in on my i4 m50 and the tires are about to be replaced. Its a super powerful and super heavy car and it will eat up tires like nothing.
Cons: tires wear quickly
Vehicle:
BMW
Mileage: 9656 km
As others mentioned, run-flats are more suspectable to sidewall damage. They're also heavier and noisier. Also, you may have a wider selection of tires if you go with non-runflat.
Pros: wider tire selection
Cons: sidewall damage, heavier
Vehicle:
BMW
