Hi folks,

 

Time to change the standard factory runflats on my F30. Whats a good recommendation you guys are using? Michelin PS3? Anybody using Bridgestone, Continental etc?

 

I'm using just for city driving with occasional trips to Penang so I value safety, comfort and longetivity.

 

Do you also use different specs for front and rear?

 

Thanks

What tyre size are you using now?

 

Thing is you are on runflats. Runflats have hard sidewall to be able to hold the car up even though there is no air therefore they are quite bumpy and won't have much comfort. If you change to normal tyres there will be comfort but then if you get a flat you do not have a spare. Either you stick to runflats or change to normal tyres but buy a repair kit. However repair kits also limited to repair of certain small damage only
