I usually wait till the end of October, or into November, until the temperature is routinely below 7c before i fit the winters.

Noticed my front conti's had a little outer edge wear compared to the rest of the Tyre last week and when I was next in filling up went to put a bit more air in and the metal caps that are on the valves have ceased on, which prompted the change in all honesty, even now their off the car I can't budge the caps / anyone got any suggestions on freeing them up?

hello all, after a couple of months owning a bmw.......... I cant believe I've not bought one before, love it - it makes a boring Monday drive to work enjoyable and the drive home a delight that brings a smile to the face, and a weekend out with the family a comfort, in winter mode now and already I'm wondering what I can do subtly for the new year, can anyone recommend a site or listing of the inter changeable parts between 3's ...... bmw's for that matter that's worth a look? and things people have done and where you've got the parts from?

cheers Russ
