I'm still trying to figure out the claim that the X5 is a 'semi-offroader'. He's kidding, right?

Read an interview with a BMW engineer/designer (can't remember which one) in a magazine recently. He noted that run flat tires, because of their stiffer sidewall, have better turn-in, and thus proivde better steering response. Hadn't heard that before, but it makes sense.

Anyway, with my last BMW purchase, I considered the RFTs to be a positive. I bought RFT winter tires as well. So, to BMW, since Daka wants them to take note: Daka's potential lost sale is cancelled out by my purchase. You're even.
