Answer to original post I'm the original owner of the post and I opted for the Kumho SPT. Here is what I think from the stock Dunlop 5000M: . the rubber is softer and gets quite hot during driving, which makes me think they won't last long, on the other side they grip better to the road ...

Great info I'm the original poster of this thread and all this information is very valuable. Thanks y'all for your input! Tony

Hey guys! I've been doing quite a bit of research and here is my dilemma: Kumho ECSTA SPT or Dunlop FM901? I've read reviews about them and I'd like to know if the SPT don't corner well enough that I'll be dissapointed and if the 901 would be too noisy... I want to stick with 195/50R16 and...

Thanks for the tips. But are you sure cutting the wire after the key cylinder won't also disable the open door dashboard light and the dome light? I know on my old VW there was a little box which was generating the chime and just took it off. As for the clutch I have been used for 10 years now...

next meeting? Hey I bought my P5 a few days ago... fully loaded, good price too. Haven't done anything on the car yet, but first thing I'll do is tint the windows... Any advice for the tint % is welcome. Also I'd like to know what really makes a performance difference, except a turbo...

One more in the club Got my P5 today too! White - polished wheels - leather - abs - 6cd - moonroof - 5 sp I also had the compass mirror installed. I wonder if I should get the cargo net: any advice? I got such a good deal: $16,820 drive-out. It's a 2003 model with 55 miles, from the...
