1 - Is there anything that I need to be aware of concerning the alignment? any specific parameters (toe and camber) and values for them? for front and rear.
2- Are there Any other tires that are worth taking a look at?
3- Who has the highest mileage on a set of 20" Contis DWS in this forum?/QUOTE]
1. On my X5d (with 20"), I had my new DWSs aligned recently. I told the tech to align them for best tire wear. The reason I did that is because the original RFTs were prematurely (17K) worn out along the outer edges of the tires. After some research, I concluded that the tires can be aligned for best suspension performance (BMW specs) which results in outer tire edge wear or for even tire wear. The two appear to be mutually exclusive. I suggest you talk it over with your tech and reach an agreement on which of the two options you want. Or, maybe, something in between.
2. I would (and did) look at Michelin. I liked what I read about DWS on Tire Rack and went with that.
3. I have older (18") DWSs on my e46 330 but they're not close to being worn out. So far, I'm completely satisfied with the DWS and I'll probably continue using them.
Good luck with whatever you choose.
