I have BMW i3s rex version. I'm in USA. So the front tires are 175/55r20 on 5.5" wheels, and rears are 195/50r20 on 6" wheels. Looking at winter or all-seasons tire options (I know about the official BMW recommendation of running all 4 19" wheels+winter tires). There are MOMO tires available: 195/55r20. And Vredestein 215/45r20. From reading various sources it looks like I could use those MOMO 195/55/20 tires on all four wheels, using stock wheels, no spacers needed, and tires would fit the rims too. (right?) But, due to the not exactly the same size as the stock tires, the circumference is g ..read more

Pair of front Ecopia EP500 tires, lots of tread, mid-2017 production date. been stored off the car in a non-ozoned basement (no furnace blower, steam heat) for several years. I think these were on our 2014 before we put snows on it and gave it to my mom in mid-2020. Went with the EP600 (which I didn’t realize until I looked it up are an all season while the EP500 is more of a summer) when the set on the car wore out, so these are just going to sit around so figured I’d pay them forward to someone if they can be of use. Free if you pick ‘em up in the Detroit area or I can slap some sticker ..read more

Here is a video showing the intermittent sound during acceleration - https://youtu.be/QhCkAyj16vY It happened once going around a turn while coasting as well. I'm thinking keeping this car might end up being a very costly mistake, but I'd like to keep the car if I can identify the noise and assess the level of risk. Help me reddit. You are my only hope. submitted by /u/arttechadventure [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Hello, I’m in the market to purchase a second car for my wife who doesn’t drive (born and grew up in a big city). I was wanting to get input from a member on the subreddit who had an i3 as their first car. She will mainly use the car for local grocery shopping and to run errands around town. The mileage will be under 20 miles a day if that. I also plan on using the i3 for small road trips with the wife (under 150 miles one way) in the future and wanted to get insight on this as well. Would you recommend an i3 as a first car and as a road trip car? We have a lot of Tesla charging stations arou ..read more

The original charger my 2017 i3 came with has died. Looking for affordable replacement recommendations. The level 1 charging speed was fine so I’d be okay with that again. I found one on amazon by a company called Liftsun for J1772 EVs and was wondering if this was the kind I’d need. Thanks for any help. submitted by /u/highcologist347 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more
