Those tires come standard on most BMW's here in the states. I have them on my car. Ithink they are ok, but I am replacing with different tires with more grip, more treadwear and non runflats.

^ same here. the threadwear rating on these bridgestones is the suck. like 140 i think?

The rubber is too soft so you go through it too fast. I would deffinetly research a bit more before just getting a tire...

Goodyear makes a runflat that is much better!
