Iam happy

August 2010 delivery, 25k miles on my 535. GY 18" tires still have a lot of tread. GREAT car. Only complaint; brake dust ( I understand it's a BMW THING).

I used a small piece of rubber weather stripping. Rolled it into a ball and stuck it in the hole. I think anything will work to close the hole.

anyone have over 20k miles on the GY 18's??

This is not a thread about the pro's and con's of the tires. I just turned 15k miles and they look like they have a lot of wear left. Would like to hear from others who have over 20,000 miles. Thanks
