Tyres MCS

[BJT]

Yes, I am being a bit lazy as I have not really got time to search. I promised a friend that I would find him some tyre options but then forgot...
I used to have a 2004 MCS with the runflats but always said I would ditch them for proper tyres when I had to replace.

What are the best Non Runflats to fit to a 2003 MCS? I think he wants to change just the front two for now and then the rear two in a few months.
I know I'm opening a can of worms regarding mixing the tyres too....

I'm not sure if he has 17's or 18's.
I'm thinking of suggesting Falken 452's as I had them on my Z4 and will probably be putting them on my Touring aswell.
Ditching the RFT's is highly recommended...

Not so cool looking but Falken ZE912s work really well too - I was surprised.

Plus you can't get 452s in 205 45 17, but you can the ZEs

I used to use Federal tyres on my MCS. Pretty decent, but a little slippery in the wet.

Sorry guys, been off the net for a bit.
Thanks for the advice, I will have a read and pass it on.

I'd certainly recommend switching to non-runflats still. Been running an R53 MCS a few weeks now on ordinary tyres and, aside from the other benefits, the extra economy wasn't imagined and is worthwhile on its own.
