b-quiet is still kind of expensive, and doesnt seem to hold up to heat that great.

'Frost King' mod here...yeah, I'm cheap but it works GREAT for the price.

I looked on the car and it's got Michelin Pilot Sports on it. I do believe they are runflats.... Time for a change.

If that's what you own, then you shouldn't even be on this site !

Sorry but I'd never trade down for some Euro piece of trash !
