Tyres on G29

[ronk]

I think the tyres on the G29 I had a test drive in were Michelin Pilots - but are they in a Runflat version or conventional with the mobility kit?

Non run flats with mobility kit.

Thanks for that info!
The car did feel good and I am making the change on my 35is - Then the thought crossed my mind that they might have been the Runflat version.
I always carry a small compressor and some tyre gunk so nothing will change

Actual profiles have also been changed to mirror what all other manufacturers have always ran on their 18s, + 19s :wink: why Bmw persevered so long with their underprofiled rubber id love to know when they clearly knew they had issues with damaged rims & complaints of harsh ride on Msport spec .

I’ve probably got to stick with the standard / original profile as fitted on the 35is - I did wonder if they might have been the runflat version but the M40i felt good on its standard rubber and I’m hoping my car will feel as good when I eventually change ( probably next spring now)
