So I was going to get some new rims but I found a shop that repaired my M6 Reps wonderfully!!! They had a crack in one of them and every rim had curb rash. I will not tell you who put the cur rash on them because I love my wife and she is a great driver.

Anyway, what do you all recommend for new rubbers? My Falken 452's are getting there and I need to get some good replacements. Low noise, great performance and a little under a million dollars. https://5series.net/forums/public/st...t/thumbsup.gif

Let me know your thoughts and experiences as I will be making the purchase as soon as I get some good feedback!

Conti ContactSportContact 2's.... I run the newer Conti ContactSportContact 5P's last year and they only lasted me 8,000 miles - not good when the fronts are 245 and the rears 275!

I love my Hankooks...

+1 ...and a great price point!

I notice a lot of members run hankooks. Don't go with ContiSport2's they wear down way too fast. I am running Bridgestone RE050A Pole Positions, nothing bad to say about them they're rated in the top 5 on Tire Rack's site. The Continental Extreme Contact DW's are rated in the top 5 as well. They have one of the longest wear tires out there for Summer Tires.

If I were getting a tire for an E60 today I'd most probably go for the Continental Extreme Contact DW or DWS. It's getting great reviews, is a top rated tire on TireRack and it is very reasonably priced.

Check the results here on the forum...Michelin pilot sports.. there just is no substitute...

Funny you recommend michelins. They are great tires, now having hankooks, I can say the price difference can't justify the difference in ride quality. Don't get me wrong... If I found a deal on michelins, I would be all over them.

I have Hankook V12s (8,000 miles now) and they are great. However, note that you may have to sacrifice on the treadwear. I have heard that they will last anywhere from 15,000-20,000 miles (Please chime in for those who have gone through a set - I'd be interested to know).

Will be considering 'Continental ExtremeContact DWS' next as I do lots daily driving.

I just went from Potenza Pole Position Run Flats to Conti DWS's. I like the feel and I like the look. I guess time will tell on the wear as I do 80-100 miles per day. The reviews are great.
