Should I replace my runflats with normal tyres?

My 2019 BMW Z4 will soon need new tyres. Should I renew with runflats or not? The latest G29 M4s are not fitted with runflats by BMW and lots of drivers say comfort levels are much improved with regular tyres. If I go for that option, which tyres should I buy? I'm not on a limited budget.

If you choose to replace your runflats with conventional tyres, you will have a greater range of tyres to choose from and will likely experienced improved ride quality as a result. The downside is that you will need some form of emergency provision in case of a puncture, such as a space saver spare and associated tools or an emergency tyre inflator.

Choosing your new tyres is a matter of selecting the attributes you want, whether that is fuel consumption, low noise or outright grip. We would suggest visiting blackcircles.com where you can enter your registration and compare the performance of a range of tyres.
