225/35 19" front and
255/30 19" rear

While Michelin has no plans to produce these sizes in a runflat, the Pzero runflat is indeed available in these sizes.

I would love to hear a comparison between the Bridgstone OEM run flat and the Pirelli new run flat... has anybody made the plunge and tried them?

Thumbs up Been going strong for 3 months...

Hi all.

I can happily report the P Zeros are working well.

I can say though they are very sensitive to pressures. Around town I run them at 42 PSI and on long freeway drives about 40 depending on the number people etc.

If the pressure is too low they do not turn in anywhere near as well as the bridgestones. So keep the pressure up and they are great.

i've tried both RFT's. Currently running P Zero RFT's on standard pressure settings which are 37 and 41 psi respectively for the e93. They grip much better than Bridgestones imo and last longer. In the wet, they are very predictable and boy do they grip grip grip! Im happy putting my foot down in the wet no problem. I'm running the 19 inch low profile tyres, 225/35/19 and 255/30/19. Overall from my experience, P Zero's are the best RFT tyres available for the 335.
