Hello everyone,

I'm new to this forum, just wanted to say hi. I frequent the M6Club, and occasionally the M6trch forum, but this place looks sweet! I have a loaded 2005 6i (we don't get the S here

) and I'll be taking delivery of my second 6 (this one with an MTX) this week. Looking forward to talking to you all.

Hey Craig,
Those Pirellis, are they any good?

I like them a lot. I haven't had any traction problems with them whatsoever, and yesterday was a monsoon outside. I've never felt uncomfortable driving with them, and that to me is the most important part of a tire. I haven't used them in snow yet though, as I just put them on about a month or so ago.

Good for you. The reason I'm asking is that I contemplated them for a Benz I owned before the 6, and the reviews weren't all that impressive considering the price the dealer was asking.

I'll let you know how they measure up in the winter.

These cost about the same as the Kumho Ecsta ASX's, which I wanted, but I needed tires the day I brought the car into the shop.... and they couldn't get any until the next day or so.... so, I ended up with these as my second choice. I don't regret them.... so far.
