I have an 07 525Xi, on Monday I punctured my left rear and gave it a nice half inch gash which is unrepairable, so now I have to replace all 4 due to the AWD, I currently have 225/50R17s on OEM 138s, my question is can I or should I replace them with Westlake SV308s at 215/50R17s or Uniroyal Tiger Paws at 225/50R17s? They are about 150-200 dollars difference, Uniroyals being the more expensive ones or bite the bullet and get Pirelli P4s at 225/50R17s for 877 installed? Please help fellow 5ers.

Thanks Ghostteck, I appreciate your response, I would love to have those V12s but my budget only allows for one set of all-seasons...
