Tyre Recommendations - E46 330i

[JaFool1]

I need to replace both rears on my E46 330i M Sport 18".

255x35 - Rear
225x40 - Front

I am looking for a good all rounder, dry & wet as I don't intend to track it. They are currently on Run Flats and I am looking to move away from this. Any recommendations?

PS4's - at least as much dry grip as the SportMaxx's previously fitted, better wet grip, stiffer sidewalls, less tyre noise plus decent rim protection in that the whole tyre wall protrudes rather than a silly little rubber bulge that doesn't offer much protection.

I used Coopers for a couple sets on mine - Seemed to be a good all-rounder.

To be fair I never drove it like I stole it though.......

An E46 shouldnt be on run-flats full stop, so best get rid

I’m a big fan of Uniroyal Rainsport 3s and Vredestein Ultrac Vorti’s. But, I also think the Nexen N’fera SU1 tyres are good, as are Kumho KU39s...

Camskill and TyreLeader generally offer the best prices, you just need to get them fitted

This is what I run on mine and I swear by them. Amazing all round tyres that wear well too.

Well it's just possible it may have been OK with run-flats as the Tyre Pressure Warning System was an option on the E46, but I doubt many buyers chose to have it!

I ran my first E46 on Continentals (I can't remember which ones as it was over 10 years ago) and my last one on Pirelli P Zeros and was more than happy with both.

I've got Goodyear Eagle F1 AS3 on mine and rate them highly.

Also went for the Goodyears, AS3 from Black Circle got a great deal. around £440 fitted locally - Thought it would be hard to replace VREDESTEIN Ultrac Sessanta however they are great in the Wet and Dry. Good alloy rim protection and comfortable and quiet.
