    Tire Recommendation for 2009 128i E82?

    I just bought a 2009 128i with Goodyear Eagle NCT runflats which need to be replaced. Even though they are a near needing replacement, they still seem to handle well with minimum road noise.

    I have been perusing the tire reviews but they are essentially useless with some raving some trashing the same tire. I have also been down the whole run flat debate but am leaning heavily towards keeping them to be in line with original spec.

    I would value the opinion / personal experience of the people in this forum if someone has recently purchased tires and can offer any commentary.

    Thanks
    Mike

    Hey Mike - I have a 135i that came with Bridgestone Potenza run flats; of all the ones I tried those were the best handling/with minimum rode noise - that being said, I am now running Hankooks and LOVE them; a lot less rode noise and excellent handling and almost half the cost. Just my 2 cents...
