As above really. Have been looking to offload the runflats for a while and the time has now come. Car is a Coupe on OEM 19's.

Thinking either PS2s (PS3's are not available in a 30 profile for the rear) or Continental Sport Contact 5's which are relatively new and seem very well reviewed.

Just wondered if anyone has direct experience of either of these on this car?

Also planning to get some tyre weld and an elctronic pump in the boot in case of a puncture (also have recovery) but if anyone has any experience of space saver options, very interested to hear.

Hi mate

Not quite the same car, but the first job I did on my E90 330D earlier this year was to biff off the Bridgestone StoneWalls for good old Michelin Pilot Sports. Little road noise, good wear and great wet and dry grip.

There is a can tyre weld and a Michelin fag lighter compressor in the boot - didn't want to go down the space saver route, sorry.

Hope this helps.
