Hi everyone
just a newbe here in NZ.
Purchased a 2010 Z4 yesterday,only 1 owner on 30.000 ks,still on original rubber.
My question is which type and brand of tyre should I buy.
Any input greatly appreciated.

You managed to make a decision, purchase and fit in less than 8 hours?! Wow. That kind of decision takes most of us weeks, if not months!
There’s lots of detail on here about tyres - I know, as I’m a protagonist - as well as any other parts / servicing you might be considering. I’d always recommend using the search function. The results can keep you enthralled for hours

I’m guessing most people - and by that I’d wager all - would recommend you remove the BMW run flat tyres to improve the car’s ride. I assume the Pirelli rubber you’ve fitted are ‘normal’

Hi Kiwi Dave, welcome to the forum. Taken over 6 months for me to choose 2 tyres for the rear, lots of research on line and on here. Having them fitted tomorrow and still wondering if I've made the right choice
Now, Sterling grey Z4 2.2 with cup holders, stubby aerial and sport seats. Roadsters ‘cause they’re great with the roof down.
