    Winter tires load rating

    Winter tires load rating

    Yeah, i didnt think it would be a big deal. I am planning on getting the tpms sensors also. I wish i could find a cheap set of used Style 427’s. The cheapest i have seen them is $300 each wheel.

    Winter tires load rating

    I am planning on getting a set of winter wheels and tires for my i3. I am looking to get a set of Nokian Hakkapeliitta R2's, problem is i am not finding them available in the 84 Q load but 88 XL is all i find when doing a search. Anyone running these tires? The load rating between the two isn't...

    It is on order!

    Nice! Did you have to order your BEV? When i went looking for one back in August there were none in my state and one only a few states away, and not the color i wanted. I wanted a fluid black Terra world and there was one ready to ship out with every option, so i lucked out. I could of done...

    Is I3 Right For Me?

    +1 on the window tint! Especially in Florida. I did 30% ceramic tint all around on mine except for the windshield. I am planning on doing the windshield with 3M Crystalline before next summer. If you haven't driven one yet, lookup your local BMW dealer. Some offer an extended test drive...

    Is I3 Right For Me?

    Is the 78 mile commute daily or weekly? Either way a 2014 i3 REX can work for you. Combined battery and REX you should be able to do 150 miles. You can code the car so you can turn the REX on when you hit 75% battery to hold the charge and get more range on battery. You live in Florida so i...

    High beam upgrade from H11 to H9 bulbs

    The additional 10w really shouldn't affect the wiring, especially since they're being used for high beams. If someone needs more light and really uses their high beams for an extended period there are LED kits that have even more light output and will run much cooler. I know each car is...

    High beam upgrade from H11 to H9 bulbs

    I have been reading how terrible the high beam H11 bulbs are in the i3, which i also noticed this on the extended test drive. Has anyone changed out the H11 bulbs for the H9? There's a couple physical differences between the H11 and H9 with a couple tabs that can easily be trimmed. There is a...

There is also another $2500 incentive in my state but that i have to submit for after i get...

    Lack of 17 i3 BEV at dealers

    There doesn't seem to be any 17' BEV's out there at all. I was looking for a fluid black and there was only one on the east coast a few states over from me and that dealer wouldnt let it go. I ended up getting really lucky and got one that is on its way to my dealer, fluid black Terra world...

    My 2016 i3 Rex Darth Vader

    Buying a 2014 BMW i3 BEV

    Thanks for the info guys! It was actually the safety inspection. I looked into getting a used i3 vs leasing a new one. It made more sense to lease a new one then getting into an almost 4 year old i3 with less than a year warranty remaining. The prices of these used is attrative but in 24-36...
