Only $250 for a set on tire rack. My saab will love these. Hankook v12 Evo k110. My m needs new rubbers too but I'm not sure how I'll like these but saving $500 over supersports might be worth it.

The V12 Evo tires are really grippy, great warm and dry weather tires. They're okay when it's wet, but they're not that great when it gets cold. The SL600 I take out for my boss has a set, and overall, they're great, I would have no issue putting another set on the car.

Snows and awd in winter is the way I'm going to go in winter. My m3 was a beast in snow with snow tires, I can't imagine how good my saabaru will be.

Might be worth getting a set for the M just for roasting!

Pick some up, for this price they can't be beat. I'm pretty anal about my m3 so my tire choices have to be the best, and the michelins are the better tire. But this price makes it very tempting.

I had them on my 335i. They're ok for street tires. They were absolutely useless on a wet track though. I don't think I would consider putting them on the M. The PSS is the right street tire for that car.

Continental Extremecontact DWS would be great performance all seasons for the saab. Cheap too!

Been staring at the deal for a while. I did replace the fronts on 2 cars the last time TireRack had a closeout sale (Fuzion ZRi) and I'm itching to get some decent rear tires on the cars too. Hmmmmm.

Cheaper than Discount Tire Direct?

It's a steal for this price. Pick up a set before the rest of us buy out the stock.

For my saab I think they'll fit the beater status nicely. The only reason I'm considering them for the m only because they're less than half the price for a set. I wouldn't feel as guilty roasting them then.

They were double the price of these. But they're definitely a great tire, I know a lot of people that run them.

They're perfect for the Saab. I understand how attractive they are given what they cost, but having had them on a BMW before I don't think I'd buy them again for the M. You're right though, they're highly roast-able at that price =)

wow, I priced out a set for some apex arc-8's (17x9 squared) and it came out to just above $500 a while back. Compare that to the stock runflats on the E90 (16x7 squared) those come in at over $830.

The set I had lasted all of 7500 miles. Hope yours fare better

I'm not expecting high miles out of these, but usually I'm easy on tires. Thanks for the info though.
