Gonna place order for a E90 325/330 this weekend. It is most certain on day-1 I will replace the stock wheels with ACSchnizer,so as the runflat tires will not be retained. I only have experienced with 3 perfromance tires. I will use 4x225 18" 1. Bridgestone S03 2. Pirelli P Zero Rosso 3. Michelli PS/2 I found PS/2 the most sticky and worried that 325i may not have the power to run them efficiently. Would like expert advice and real user experience preferred, please assume I will get a 325 or a 330 and match the appropriate tires from above for me.
Please also advise any special settings needed if I replace the runflat tires with normal ones.
Thanks cnt

If you go to www.tirerack.com they have ratings for each of those tires, and also reviews from people who own each tire. The S-03's are the most expensive out of the bunch. I hear the Goodyear Eagle GS-3's (something like that but they have a V-shaped tread) are pretty darn good too.

I would stick to my choices as our cars do pretty low milege here and the tires cost is less significant. I still need E90 owners' live experience with those tires I mentioned.

If you get the 330i....with staggered rims......225 in the front is good....but in the back....gotta run at least 255 or higher....
225 all around will be okay with the 325i non-sports package.....

if you give up the stagger setup, maybe run 235 all the way around
you'll get less push in corners, more neutral handling
that's what the 95 M3 had
