Need tire recommendation
I have a CPO F30 2016 328i with the original run-flats and want to replace them with run-flats that are:
1. Quieter, if possible 2. Probably a summer tire, given I live in South Texas and it's hot/warm/dry here most of the year I have 19" wheels. Any recommendations for value/quality/styling? Thanks! |

Everyone will have their own choice, here in the UK mine is the Michelin PS 4s. Good all round tyre, I have Continental Contact 5 on the back and they are super easy to spin and loose traction.

I have 19" SC6 all around and they are the best tires I have ever used and the Industry Respected German Autobild tests since 2016 confirm this.

Went from the stock Conti’s to these and these are amazing! A world of difference!

Might be helpful to know which "original run-flats" are on the OP's car now.
I have the Pirelli P7 Cinturato run-flats on my 320i and they are WAY better in every way (noise, ride, handling) than the Goodyear Eagle LS-2 run-flats on my wife's X3. If I were to buy run-flats again, which I'm not, I would go with the Pirelli's. |

Reconsider the run flats. They're fine up through 16 inch rims, passable with 17 & 18 inch, but with 19 inch and larger the short stiff sidewalls make for a hard and noisy ride.

Or you can go with Michelin PS2 RFT as an option
