BMW Tires!?

[BMW_2005_M3]

Hey everyone,

Well. I'm new here, and I'm the proud owner of a 2005 M3. I spent big bucks on the car, so i figure i should do the same for the only part of the car that actually touches the road....or at least that's my justification.

I'm looking at two brands right now: Vredestein and Nokian.

Just wanted to get some feedback on these brands...i've heard good things about both but it seems like Vredestein might carry more of the performance tires that i'm looking for.

I LOVE the look of the Ultrac Sessanta. Awesome tread pattern.

Also...anyone know where i can buy the Vredesteins or Nokians in the Chicago area? I don't mind ordering online but i dont want to rack up tons of shipping charges or anything.

Any and all feedback is welcome!

Thanks all!
