C63
Ok, so mainly the slipping is due to the lack of thread, right? Can you comment on ride comfort and noise level? Sorry if am hijacking...
BTW, I am dying to try General Exclaim UHP... this might be a good cheap alternative will research on the thread wear.

I've heard nothing but good reviews. I just got some for my 335i. They're great. Just google search them. They're extremely affordable, but they don't skimp on performance. Really, all the reviews are unanimously positive. I couldn't be happier with them.

Do NOT buy General Exclaim UHPs. Bottom line. You will regret them. Plus, the tread pattern looks terrible, like an all-season tire. The side walls leave a good 1/8" of wheel exposed; terrible protection. They're just all around ****ty tires.

What are you talking about? You must not have a great deal of experience with a wide range of tires. Gen Exclaim UHPs are the worst of the worst, as I've already said. Yeah, they ride nice, but who buys a UHP tire for comfort? Not me. They wear fast regardless of the tread wear rating. You'll get a good 20k out of them if you drive like a grandma. But, knowing the C63 (parents have one), you'll be spinning and burning rubber all day long with all that torque.

How are they bad tires because they are done in 2k miles???
They have a low tread wear rating. Which gives better grip of the road.
Get something with a 300treadwear, they will last much longer, but you will lose performance. They wont grip the road as good as a lower tread wear rating tire.
I have Nexen N3000's on now. They are cheap and 340 tread wear. But they spin like im on ice in first and second gear under full throttle.
