WHich amongst those three?
I had Michelin (PS2) on my E92 and really liked them.
For the F30, I am looking at Michelin Pilot Super Sport, The Conti DW and the Pirelli P Zero. Any advices, or any other brands I should be be considering?

In my honest opinion, I think Michelins are the best tires out there consistently. That being said, I'm not always willing to pay for them and am a fan of Continentals. I've never had the DW set, but bought two sets of DWS's back to back on my last car.

I think I'm doing DWs this time around. RE760s don't come in the size I need.

I have the Pilot super sports in the stock 19" size and they are amazing. If your trying to save a few bucks get the conti DW's.

Not at the moment, but it's mainly because I am not too familiar with the brand

I had them on my lowered MKV GLI and they were amazing for the price. Ride quality was excellent and road noise was noticeably absent. They wore a little too quickly for my liking, but that is to be expected given they were a max performance summer tire. Their construction process is very similar to Michelins by the way.

I love the V12s but they die quick. The DWs are much better and only slightly more expensive.

That is what I found looking at comparisons and articles on the web.

I have the Hankooks V12 on my car and they are pretty grippy all around. Even in the wet I don't lose traction often. I will report back on wear when I am close to changing them out.

The V12s are amazing in the rain though too.
