Greetings M3 E46 owners.
This topic has been raised before but can't find anything recent. Would be great to hear which tyres you think are best and/or best value. I've owned my M3 since 2005 and always ran 19" Continental M3 Conti Sport Contact's. Need to buy 2x new rears (255/35 R19 Z) and thinking after 9 years it might be time to consider something else!!
Thanks and look forward to hearing what you have to say.

Thanks for all the input. The Conti's I have on the front still have plenty of wear - any views on mixing brands on front -v- rear? I.E. ok to put MPSS's on the rear with Conti's on the front?

Looks like I started quite a debate! The Hankooks came up overall best in the 2015 Auto Bild Performance Tyre Test (thanks Jon) - anyone tried them?
