brebeuf x6 · 05-31-2010, 04:53 PM

I live in Indianapolis we get snow but not a ton i am going to get the 215 rims and i was hoping somebody would have a suggestion about a good all season tire to use because i dont want to deal with changing the wheels and tires

I could not find snow tires for my 215s. Ended up buying the BMW winter package.

I just changed my noisy Summer RFT to Continental Extreme Contact DWS from Tire Rack.

Sorry guys but aren't 215's, 21 inch wheels? I thought you could only run those RFT on them? Continental makes non RF 21 inch tires?

i went to tire rack and i couldnt find the continental tht was wide enough to match the bmw width or does that not really matter?

Tirerack doesn't carry all the sizes. I found out the hard way.
