The OEM Conti's that come with the M5 do not have great ratings on the Tirerack website:

Anyone driven on them? Anyone considering changing wheels/tires?

I think they work excellent for the M5. Remember that the compound and tyre pattern (?) are different from a standard Conti SC2.

The only thing is that they don?t last very long. 16000km on the first set of rears and appr. 30000km on the front ones!

My friend has had Michelin on his 21" wheels on the M5 and they seem to last much longer.
