20" square set up best tires
Just received my M50i and not liking the harshness of these 275/45ZR20 Bridgestone tires. I believe it is due to being runflats.
Anyone have an opinion on what the best goflat tire is for this vehicle? Summer use only. Looking for a quiet tire, soft ride but handle well. Michelin's have worked well for me in the past but there are so many choices out there on TireRack. Would appreciate any thoughts or experiences. Thanks for sharing... (fyi... only 200km so far, but already absolutely loving it!!! :-) |

I'd go Michelin Pilots year-round, but these fit my use case

I plan on replacing the stock RFTs with the Continental ExtremeContact DWS 06 Plus when my X5 arrives:

Thanks, I've had Pilot Sports on cars and liked them, but never a SUV. They seem to offer PS2's or PS4 SUV. Harder than ever to figure this out. Any thoughts on these 2 versions of the Pilot Sports?

I’m watching this space closely. My OEM Continental RFTs have one season left, and I want to replace them with a Michelin Pilot tire, on either square or staggered 740M rims (I currently have the square setup).

I have the OEM Continental Premium Contact 22" on my M50i and absolutely love the ride quality and handling with them. I previously had a '19 X5 50i with the 20" Bridgestones and definitely agree about the harshness.
