I've never heard of the first tire, but I have heard of the second one. In my opinion, you should save a bit longer and buy better rubber if possible.

C'mon bro, save up some money or sell your stamp collection and buy some real tires for your BMW.

In those sizes, the most inexpensive tire Tirerack sells would be $546 plus shipping.

Your local tire shops may have different deals on different brands and models that are comparable, but my advice would be to save a little longer or find a way to get a better tire.

2x 225/40R18XL for 214
2x 255/35R18XL for 408

-50 dollar rebate.


of cuz they are trying to sell me the free replacement Certificate. any idea is it worth it ?

I haven't had any customers run those before, nor have I ran them on my car. I'd probably take those over Nankangs or Velozzas though. The reviews on Tirerack show them to be average, so I don't think they'll be too bad for everyday driving. Just don't expect them to perform like a high performance summer and you should be OK.
