Those grille badge looks better on older classic BMWs but doesn't look too bad your X.

I had one on my e30, looked great. Not sure. Need to wash the X today, I'll decide afterwards.

What type of meats did you go with JB?

J.Belknap 07-31-2014 09:54 AM

Same as before sir, Bridgestone Dueller HP Sport Non-RFT 315/35/20's all around. Got 50k out of the old ones, going to stick with what works!

If it ain't broke don't fix it JB, non-RFT Duelers sounds nice to me, I hate RFTs.

I get a kick out of postings sometimes "I only got 45k out of XXX brand tire, what should I switch to?"

The fact that our 3 ton behemoths aren't roasting through meats every 30k is impressive to me, if I get 30k or higher out of a staggered set I'd replace with the same damn ones lol!

Been in teh sun all day. Sub is functionally done, I had to run RCAs to get sound none of the using the stock outputs worked. I ran all 5 channels while I was doing it bit 1/2 a$sed out behind the front seat because (a) it was 115 in the garage & (b) I was not prepared to pull apart the whole center console, rear carpet & both sides of the door trim.

It will take some dialing in to get it right but I like having real bass, I will say as a median the OEM did a great job.

I washed her this morning while it was "only" 95, still not sold on th badge, thinking maybe moving it to the upper left corner of the passenger grill.
