As for the brake cans, the brake fluid tends to bubble the paint after awhile. So, again, like the decision on tires, it's a trade off between form and function.

Hi Jim,
I was hoping to stay away from the bias ply tires because of the tracking issue.
Jim, I assume you mean the paint on the cans? Do the cans themselves deteriorate, or is it from splashes and spills of the brake fluid that the paint gets damaged? I think the bmw reservoir is plastic.
