    Anyone purchased tyres recently:

    I was looking through some old threads on the site, has anyone purchased tyres recently? There is currently 19" Michelin runflats on my 2012 520d and the front two will need replacing in the next few weeks.

    Any suggestions or good experiences on here? I wont be going runflat going forward I'd say as there not the most comfy and obviously the price.

    Thanks,
    James

    Got my parents E60 and range rover fitted with hankooks in Tyreland in Glasnevin. Cheapest around. Sister got her E90 fitted with Run flats there too

    I know the manager but he didn't give me special prices.

    I'll be going back to get some tyres for my new alloys soon too.

    Yeah I use oponeo myself, looking at goodyear, dunlop, contentials and hankooks..... The Michelin are very expensive and the pirelli dont seem to last...

    Used Camskills numerous times over the years and never had any issues - sterling is going in the right direction for us at the moment too - patience is a virtue !!

    That's true, what brand are you using on the e60? Were they 19" or 20"?
