How do you like the sports seats? I tried it today and they seem pretty comfy. I am wondering if i overspent for ordering comfort seats?

Ok, but the way you wrote about it made it look like you were saying you had tehm fitted on your G30.
Maybe its just me


Either way, the Primacy are not listed by BMW for fitment as high performance Summer tires, unlike the Goodyears.
They are listed for the G30 up to 19" for other applications (maybe the UK will have them fitted on some M Sport due to climatic conditions ??)

They do have non-runflat Michelin Pilot Super Sports available in 20" though

Check out some of the Goodyear tests here http://www.tyrereviews.co.uk/Tyre/Go...ymmetric-3.htm

The exact make fitted depends on whats at the factory the day the car is built.
But it appears the primary one for the G30 M Sport is the Gooodyear

Goodyear G30 run flats

Must have improved them for the G30 then which is good news cos the old goodyears I tried on my F11 were shocking especially in the wet

just beautiful. I like the blue stitching on the interior and the m-sport front fascia really makes the car look aggressive.
Congratulations!!!!!!

Welcome to the family, the last picture says it all.
Did you take your dad's car out for a spin and take a few excellent
pics??
