    A budget place: Broncos. They are based near Wahda Mall.
    A not so budget place: FusionAC. Mussafah.

    I have not tried any of these places yet. My car was coated before i bought it, so i have been maintaining it with a coating friendly wax by Turtle Wax on a monthly basis. If only i had a AC cooled garage i would assist you or any member with detailing (I use to DIY these things back home all the time).

          Well if you need my advice don't go for the run flat tires it's more expensive than the normal and may get your rims cracked just go for the normal one and use a small spare wheel.

          For the shops you are in abu dhabi or dubai

            Honestly I would prefer normal tyres and run flat already cracked all rims from corner.. but rear two tyres are new and front 2 tyres need to change.. all 275/R30/20.. I am in Abu Dhabi.. the ride is also bumpy and little vibrations with run flats.. but going to normal tyres again will cost..

              Believe me this is what i was going though and thinking of, but I didn't want to lose the new front tires but now after changing 3 rims it's cheaper to change to normal tires and get some rest for 2 years.
              If u some the rims price 1600 for a set multiple 3 and 1150 for rear tyres multiple 3 multiple 2 my lost was 4 time the cost of changing to normal tires

                    Go with the manufacturer recommendation. There is a tolerance of +/- 10mm . Not sure what the recommeded size for the F10 with your type rims are. Mine are 19s and have normal profile tyres.

                      Ok I'll check with Abu Dhabi Motors about the recommended size.. but usually higher sizes are more comfortable or small sizes??

                        more rubber...more air....more cushioning

                        thicker profiles are more comfortable

                          Higher profiles won't fit my car as said by the shop.. Dunlop low profiles are recommended as per them..

                              Post a pic of what style wheels you got. Usually shops will recommend whatever sizes they have stock. My 18x9 are recommended by BMW to run 255 but it's common to run 275 on them.

                                Best is to stick with the tyre size recommended by BMW.

                                I agree with [MENTION=31]Wazif[/MENTION] on the comforts of more rubber, but there is not much you can do with a 20" wheel.

                                In addition, I would not put dunlops on a heavy car. The side wall tends to separate from the face of they tyre on heavy cars, especially if you are a spirited driver.

                                Should not be a problem at all.

                                I would not run anything wider than a 255 on a 9" wide wheel.
