bmw f20. In the past, there was a model of GoodYear whose name escapes me at the moment. The car's final tire improved its responsiveness and handling, but its harshness and noise levels also increased. It's lot less noisy in Michelin. We started to enjoy our time in the automobile more. In addition, the automobile is now more comfortable to ride in and minor pits no longer send a scream through the cabin. BMW drivers should be aware that the tougher tires they purchase will result in a reduction in driving performance. Relax, perhaps, but if you play checkers while driving, the car will respond more like a ship than a choppy sea.
