Here is a pre-mount pic and on the rear driver side. They were nice but didn't have that feel I was looking for. Went back to summers. I would recommend them for an all season though.

Anyone here try the Michelin Lattitude Diamaris? Also tempted to give the P-zero run-flats a try, but wasn't a huge fan of the normal P zeros that came on my E92.

I'm looking to replace the crappy stock Dunlop RFTs. All season isn't necessarily a priority to me as I live in San Diego and I tend to drive the truck more aggressively so summer/performance tires are favored.

Bumping an old thread here to see if there is any feedback on the Diamaris as was asked above ? They are well rated and I have always been a Michelin fan.

Just picked up a 2010 35d to replace a Touareg and looking to upgrade it to 20"x10" and 20"x11" and go with the 275/40/20 - 315/35/20 set up. Was considering a 21" set up but can't find anything but run-flats and that's a non starter for me.

Thx

Replaced my conti rft's with DWS 15k ago. Excellent in moderate snow, great wet and dry traction but......in the last 2,000 miles they have become really loud. I am usually not to fussy with road noise but these have become excessive. I rotated every 6k. I don't know if this is a BMW suspension issue in that they chew up tires or a DWS tire issue.
Anyone have any thoughts on this?

I have DWS on MINI and after about 30K they indeed became very loud... however, they weren't very quiet to begin with, plus MINI isn't the quietest vehicle itself.
Having said that, I have a set of 20" DWS to be installed tomorrow - I can't imagine them being worse than Toyos that are unbearable in 30-50 MPH range.

Same here. So much better than the OEM Bridgestone RFTs. For those wanting a quiet tire, these will be tough to beat amongst the other alternatives.
