we use DZ03G on the E36m3 but that is 1150kg (300kg lighter). but the tyres are very good. I suspect that DZ03G are best option as Kuhmo are hard to get hold of and Nangkangs performance and longevity are a bit of an unknown still at that sort of weight car

billy has a new set of 265 DZo3g now so his feeedback will be critical.
