Is it a runflat? How did it drive enough for that wear and not blow out? And how did you not notice?

You'll have to ask Kobi. And no, not a runflat.

I know it had air when she left Gettysburg.

I can't see it in the pix, but is that one of the new contis?

I think it's time to toss the x5 and replace it with something more you:

That's cleeeean. Interesting how much higher the bidding is on this than on the M3 swap that was up on Cars and Bids a few months ago.

And the requirement was AWD. Or it’d be an E39.

Nick M3 · 11-12-2021, 10:38 AM

Well. Don't like the state of the wheel, so that'll need replacing too. Sigh.
