Looking great creepy How do you rate the new exhaust, louder deeper better, how about at mway speeds is the drone under control?

Hi Chester. The exhaust has no drone at all. I'd been driving a loan car for four days and didn't get a hit of drone. The sound when cruising is pretty much as stock from inside the cabin. It's through the gears it really works. especially on over-run, where it crackles and pops a lot.

Nice.

I just wish people stop calling it a "M Performance Exhaust" though. It is just a muffler! Put a 4 inch down and mid pipe (with high flow catalytic) then you can call it a performance exhaust. But heck, the new muffler is a great noise maker.

We it stated "performance exhaust" on the invoice. So I wouldn't loose sleep over it .

Those wheels are very nice on a white car :-)

What tires are you on? Much difference in comfort, noise, grip etc. from the originals?

They came with Perelli Runflats, which I wouldn't have given the time of day normally, from previous experiences with Bridgestone run flats on my E92.

But I was lucky enough to borrow an M235i from a dealer with them fitted and they sold it to me. The are quieter than the PSS and the steering weight on comfort setting is slightly weightier.I don''t expect them to grip as well in the wet, but I haven't put them to the test yet.

As for the ride. I was amazed to go up a wheel size and on run flats, the ride is hardly any different to the 18's.
