Quick question, on a 2001 325Ci Sport, what tryes are folks running? My Pilot Sports are getting to the end of their life so looking at either Pirelli P-Zero Rosso's, Conti, or more Pilot Sports....what's the recommendation?

Bridgestone Potenzas S02s, Goodyear F1 are some of the best for wet and dry. Bridgestones can wear slightly quicker but give great grip.

Thanks Skull,

What are the RE040's like for road noise...heared they are quite rowdy, is this true?

depends on the roads , i drive a little spirited so i concentrate on that more than road noise.
on the motorway no different from other tyres i used.
they are pricey but i found a place that does them for about 210 all in and they come to your house to fit them .lost the link .so ime looking for it atm .

I fitted Conti Sports on new MV's, They are good all round tyres, particularly in the wet.
