BMW 335i (D) Tyre Review Highlights

Writing about the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 5 given 73% (225-45-17-)
Driving on mostly country roads for 5000 average miles
Incredible grip in all conditions, these tyres feels amazing. Better grip than the Dunlop Sport Maxx tyres I had previously, but the trade-off for all that grip is very poor wear rate. Overall I would choose the Dunlops over these as they lasted far longer and gripped almost as well.

Writing about the Nankang NS2 given 31% (255-35-19-W)
Driving on a combination of roads for 14000 spirited miles
The tyres came with the car - remapped to 340bhp and can't cope to the extent that they are dangerous! In the dry I can slide around like I'm on gravel if I'm only slightly adventerous with my right foot! In the wet there is absolutely no grip. I have no idea if they are any good in the snow as I couldn't get on to a road with them!

Terrible, dangerous, but unfortunately hard wearing!

Driving on a combination of roads for 15 spirited miles
Outstanding grip on curvy roads, communicative and predicatable at the limits of adhesion. Yes, expensive but will replace with same.

Writing about the Bridgestone Potenza RE050A Run Flat given 50% (255-30-19-W)
Driving on mostly country roads for 26000 easy going miles
Just replaced all four tyres after 4000 miles of wear. 225/R19 RE050A 88Y on the front and 255/30R19 RE050A 91Y on the rear. All tyres worn through to the braiding on the inside edge, rest of tread approximately 7mm. Scary as you cannot see the wear without getting under the car. The tracking was all awry with the king pin angle being over 13 degrees+ on the front tyres. 26 readings were taken on the front of which 6 were classified as dangerous This is either a tyre design problem or the the BMW suspension is unable to absorb the extra stresses caused by the stiffness of the side wall in a RF tyre hence the changes in the tracking. The UK roads are in a terrible state with pot holes, sunken drain covers or badly repaired subsidence. This must contribute to the problem and therefore either Bridgestone or BMW or both are not producing a product suitable for UK road conditions. Today I was informed that a colleagues car, a BMW 1 series has suffered the same problem and all four tyres are having to be replaced. This suggests that this is a common problem with BMW and Bridgestone on which despite the dangerous implications both manufacturers are keeping quiet. I will follow this through with BMW and report further
