 Run-Flats? How many miles before replacement?



What can one expect for milage with the E90 run flats?


   Reply » Run-Flats? How many miles before replacement?

It depends if those are the non SP or those with SP.

However, while browsing in tirerack, I've discovered that there are NO 16'' runflat tires available for winter driving !!!

Here in Canada, I'll have no choice then to drive without a spare during the winter.... And I'm really thinking about getting all-season tires non runflat for the summer... Cheaper, less noisy and a better alternative.. And I don't believe BMW when they say that the suspension was fine tuned for the runflats..

Info from Donnalee:
Checked out the E90 winter tires on the dealers part system today

For European 325i they are

205/55/16 Goodyear Eagle UG GW-3 or
225/50/16 Dunlop SP Winter Sport M3 or
225/45/17 Bridgestone Blizzak

ofcourse they are all run-flat

if it were me, I'd change them within 100 miles of driving off the lot.
