Haha yup, too good of a deal to pass them up. Now I just have to sell the 132's, sucks because there's new tires on them and the tires on the 20's will probably need to be replaced next year. Recommendations for tire pressure in these? (They're runflats btw) My friend/indy said to run them at lower psi to wear them more evenly but they're tramlining like crazy on certain roads, I think putting more air in would help a little.

Ricky Bobby will become famous soon enough
I run 32-33 psi on my Toyo Proxes, I'd recommend the same for the runflats, they will be stiffer than my Toyos but I don't think lowering below 30 can be good?

Yeah I know it's at 30 in the rear right now, I'll bump them all up to 32/33 and see how that feels. You going to Bimmerfest man?

^Good job. I think you deserve more than beer after having those done, assuming you're DIY of course.
