Problem..My car has so much power................ (archive)

Seriously, I can spend $700+ to get new rubber on my M-tech wheels (Avon), or I can buy some M5 17" rims with $200+ tires on them. With the Avons I keep the original look. With the M5s the sky is the limit with available rubber.

I do not plan on racing (tracking) the car, except for the occasional street sprint. Schooled a Mustang GT the other day, and he was trying hard!

My delema is, there are very very few original M535i's in the states. I really want to keep mine original but the HP I am achieving (will only get better with the Hartge equipment yet to be installed) now is getting dangerous with the TRX'es and I do not know if the Avon will deliver the performance I need.

What do you guys think?

Thanks,
Duke
