Hello,

In the next few thousand miles it is going to be time to get a set of replacement "boots" for my 328. At present it runs on Stock 7 x 15 BMW rims, with 205/60 R15 Michelin MXV4's

A couple of questions.

1. Why is it that MXV4 prices are the Worlds Best kept Secret?, Everywhere, (except Tire rack ;-) always Advertises as "call for best price" or something similar

2. I am thinking of switching to Pirelli P6000's, has anyone had any experience with these, When I was still in the UK, I use to run P6's and they were GREAT tires.
Also whats the difference between the "Sport Veloce" and the regular 6000?

Any other suggestions? recommendations welcome. I am looking for a Tire with good grip and wear. I would run RE71's but I dont fancy swapping out every 15,000 miles or so!!

Many Thanks!

David.
