My run flats on my 2019 alll4 are due for replacement, and I'm looking into ditching run flats for Falken Wildpeaks. Both are 225/50r18, and I really don't want to swap tires every season. However, tire rack says the Wildpeaks are a wider tread? Would that be because of the blockier tread as I understand?
Anyone running these on the stock 18"rims?

I probably need a new engine for my 2012 countryman s (specifically a 10-2012) and I found a used engine with 30k miles from a parts dealer who says it will work but he didn’t tell me it was from a paceman. I asked for a the vin and found out on my own. I typed in my info at www.partsprosusa.com and was connected to a guy with The Auto King, but I’m not sure about this company. The price is right for the engine at $1700. This is the info I got for vin

Upgraded from 15s to 16s, went from a 175/65/15 to a 205/50/16. The difference in grip is insane. Empty roundabouts will be even more fun now! I’m not sold on the new look though, although I need to give her a wash to be sure.

Yesterday while doing about 70mph down the highway my timing slipped on my R61. We've had so much together and I was hoping to get a few more years out of her. Pour one out in remembrance for me, or do a shot of the good stuff. I already did.

So I just ordered the headlight trim in black and the grill I was wondering if for around the body can I just pull off the trim and paint it black because I don’t want to use the tape and the blackout trim is like $600 so looking for a good cheaper option. Thanks!

I love her so much!!! Need recommendations for floor liners (glaring at those $200 weather tech ones). Any other recommendations? ?

As I was parking my car I got low head beam malfunction alert, come to check and the bulb cover fell off. I haven’t touched my headlights in a few years.

Short clip of some oversteer action on T14 at Pitt Race in the Mini! We need some more F56 track action on this sub! Running 2:06ish in some traffic with the current mods. Should have a couple more seconds with a free track! Should be around where an unmodded Type R ends up. Lots of Porsches and Mustangs swallowing their pride…
A couple bolt on mods really changed this car. Two problems with this set up - heat and body roll. The car is begging for some coils and an intercooler. The 8 speed auto was getting hot in the later sessions and didn’t like downshifting. JCW has a transmission cool ..read more
