What run flats are quietest?

I will soon need to change the tyres on my BMW 530d. It is currently fitted with Bridgestone Potenza 225x50 on 17inch rims.

The tyres are fairly noisy so I'm hoping that you can suggest an alternative run flat tyre with both good wear and a quieter ride?

BMW now seems to favour Dunlop.
