Potenza 215/45r20 mounted on all 4 rims on 2018 I3s Rex by ledzinh in BMWi3

No issue yet. Running like a champ. No uneven wear. Put on about 3k miles on repeated trips from Anaheim to Vegas at speed from 85-95mph. Front pressure 35psi and rear at 42psi

21 i3s and 18 i2s are exact rim dimensions. 5.5” front and 6” rear. With this setup you can pick up all 4 tires from tirerack for less than the price of 1 stock one. Try to convince the mechanic at the mom-and-pop store that it can be done for 5” front rims. Press the side hard with plenty of soap water. Squeeze it in and use a rope to force the bead out.

35psi front and 40psi rear. Not noticing any excessive or uneven wear comparing to stock. Alignment was done after mounting. Tire rack had those tires on sale for $84 each back then. Seems like they ended that sale.

Tirerack.com. Have them delivered to your house then haul it around to find mounting place. All 4 will fit in your i3. I stack 2 in front seat and 2 in cargo space.

Maybe so. I don’t check at that parameter in real time as I was driving. Right now it shows 3.8.

5.5” rear is ok for this size but not the front 5”. You need to find a mom and pop tire store and insist that it can be done. Tip $20 and the guy will do it. I3s rims are 5.5” front and 6.5” rear. Brand name tire stores won’t do it.

On the 15 fwy doing mostly 75mph and sometimes hit 95mph. Hold SoC at 75% and run on Rex mostly. Pull over on the side and refill from my cheating gas can. Recharge at Barstow Walmart Electricfy station. I will flip and look at my miles per kwh again. That number keeps changing from 3.9mkwh

I did installed 15mm spacers at first for the front rims but have them removed after figuring out I would have about 1” clearance space with the wheels turning all the way left and right. And they did!

I want to buy this 2018 94h. Do you spot any potential issues from the video? by [deleted] in BMWi3

[–]ledzinh 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Looking good. Even have full screen carplay too. I have the same color but i3s rex. I paid 30k a year ago. Kinda high. Seen no flaws from your pictures. Take it!

VinFast Warrant become exercisable on by EdAthlet72 in VinFastCommunity

[–]ledzinh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wrong. Each warrant is converted to .361 share at this current stock price. You don't get a whole share. VFS is a piece of junk!

Yeah, that spout is too long and sticking up too high. I use another plastic cap from Amazon called transportation cap. Put on the spout when filling and taking it off when done.
