I hate my noisy and heavy Dunlop RFT. I just ordered a set of Continental ExtremeContact DWS (non-RFT) for all 4 corners. I hear amazing reviews on these shoes. They should be quiet and drive better. For the price of 2 front Dunlop RFT, you can get a set of Contis.

I just put Continental ExtremeContact DWS's on my front and i actually do notice a smoother ride. Those run flats were rough. cant comment on noise reduction but i think once i get those tires on the rears too, itll be noticeable.
Also I realized that with the lack of camber on the X5's, maybe the weight of the car on turns adds to the excessive wear on the outer edges of the tires.
