I know someone with a similar issue. It makes a hollow sound like when you bounce one of those red dodgeballs off someone's head.

2020, 22" wheels with the Conti's. Lots of concrete roads in Houston so its a constant hollow grinding sound. If you just smack the tire with your hand it sounds hollow. Super weird.

I'm thinking this is a tire issue. That is not normal. If anything, a GT summer run flat tire should be rock hard when you hit it.

Looks like BMW makes a Pirelli tire in that size. I'm going to tell my friend to demand the dealer changes to the Pirelli's. The sound ain't focking normal...or at least not acceptable for a luxury SUV.
