We had two e46 330d sports on 18" wheels. The first came on PS1s and the second Bridgestones. Changed them both to PS2s. Didn't really like the Bridgestones, they wore unevenley compared to the Michelins and were noiseier.

We running a couple at the moment.
A 52 330i sport saloon on Goodyear Eagle F1s and a 52 330ci sport coupe on Conti sportContact 3s.

Both are very good in the wet but I really notice a difference on dry roads.
The F1s are much better in terms of grip and ride but wear quickly in comparison. For the extra life I can live with the Contis - specially as I'm not on a track or hooning around the twisties all the time. If I was I'd go for the F1s every time.

The Falken FK452 is also worth looking at, just got a complete set fitted in 18's for £340.
I actually prefer them to the Eagles, very similar tyre just quite a bit cheaper.

Falken FK452 in 18" work way better on my 330ci than the previous Michelin PS2s'. Shame they were so cheap though... Thoroughly recommended for all-round use.
