BMW 530d F11 Tyre Review Highlights

Writing about the Continental SportContact 7 given 53% (245-40-19-)
Driving on mostly motorways for 4000 average miles
I bought these tires about a year ago. The drive was great and the grip immense no matter what the conditions were. I knew there is gonna be faster wear on those tires, but i figured it is worth the pleasure, however after just one summer season - about 4000 miles - mostly driven on a highway, the tires were pretty much gone. What is worse the thread is there but become step shaped and the noise they produce is unbelievable. They were not the quietest tires when I bought them, but now they are essentially undrivable. I wouldn't recommend them for heavier cars, i recon on VW Golf they work just fine, but in this size, it was not the best purchase.

Driving on a combination of roads for 40 average miles
Purchased in 2018 the Goodyear Asymmmetric 3 Run Flats for my BMW 5 series touring, I am just replacing them now having covered 40,000 miles which is really excellent, they were much quieter than the Goodyear Excellence tyres previously fitted and gave better road handling and improved grip overall. They also wore evenly unlike the previous Goodyear Excellence standard fit tyres, so highly recommended.

Writing about the Pirelli Cinturato P7 All Season Plus given 62% (225-45-17-)
Driving on mostly motorways for 15000 average miles
Comfortable tyre with reasonable grip however it didn't seem to be great in the wet compared to the previous tyres. Actually good on snow, but perhaps the four wheel drive helps there

Driving on a combination of roads for 12000 average miles
These arrived on a new to me 530d. They are dreadful tyres. Very glad to be changing them. The dry grip is just about okay but in the wet they have the potential to be lethal. If it wasn't for the electronics on the car coming off roundabouts would be an exceptionally hazardous business... Don't buy.

Writing about the Fulda Kristall Control HP2 given 90% (245-45-18-V)
Driving on a combination of roads for 3500 average miles
Very good grip and driving in wet roads. Very good in poor snow, also in wet snow, but not very good in ice roads for braking and no good grip in ice. Noisy when speed more than 100km/h, but good handling and road feedback.

Writing about the Continental Sport Contact 3 SSR Run flat given 53% (245-45-18-)
Driving on mostly motorways for 15 easy going miles
Fitted to BMW F11 530D SE Touring.

Whilst this is the first car I have had with run flat tyres I am not overly impressed. The car originally had 19" rims but when I bought the car I had the garage change the wheels to 18" as British roads are now so bad.
Firstly ride comfort. You feel the shock of every potholed road imperfection. I had to replace front wishbones at 50,000 miles (Driving for a living I have never had to do this on any other car!) and a buckled front wheel.
My driving is 80% motorway driving style for economy so tyre wear is disappointing. Considering the continentals were new when i bought the car, in 30,000 miles i have had two sets of rear tyres and will shortly need a third set and am on my second front set. When driving Miss Daisy I expect better mileage! I have just put Bridgestone Driveguard on the front and will see how they perform. Front tyres lasted 28,000

Came with the car. Best thing I did was to take them off and throw them away. If you see someone else with these tyres on their car stay a long distance away from them.
