Hi!

I'm so tried of my RFT tires, because of the horible noice they make. When the car was new, they didn't make any noices, but now after at least 30.000 kms on these tires, I just can't drive with them anymore.

So my qeustion is, if my wheels can wear non-runflat tires ? Or can I only use RFT tires with this setup ?

If yes (which I think the answer would be) which tires should I buy? Michelin?

The wheels are "normal" so you can choose any tire you want -- runflat or not.

If you search the forum, you'll find many different recommendations on tires that others have liked. I'm sure others will add some information here as well...

In case you don't already know about them, the Tire Rack has a great website where you can see recommendations and reviews on many different tires. You can spend some time there figuring out what may be best for your needs and then see if other members have used that choice...

Yeah, got the same wheels. Bmw e-mailed me saying that they can be used with non-runflats. Looks a great wheel to me!
