My X3 has the 19" staggered setup and was fine for 10k miles until I had a slow puncture on the rear which my local tyre place were happy to patch for me.
I will be continuing with the runflats and am about to replace all my tyres at 18k miles, they still have 3-4mm of tread but I've picked up a brand new set of Michelin Primacy tyres and BMW 622m wheels for less than the cost of new tyres  |
I had a 218d active tourer for 4 days with Michelin Primacy tyres (225's), and they were pretty noisy compared to the P Zero's on my X3. Another point of interest.... I had my tyres pumped up to 34 psi front and 36 psi rear.
When i got it back, they had been reset to 32 front and 33 rear?
