The highly responsive tread pattern adapts to the road surface, providing better grip and control, especially on wet roads.

Massive improvement over the factory Pirelli eco run-flat tyres that came with my car. You can feel the traction control interfering a lot less, wet weather performance is epic, the Michelin side wall construction is a bit softer, which is a plus since my car has no adaptive suspension. Overall, brilliant tyre for BMWs, only downside is the price, they are expensive for this size of tyre.

I changed my tyres this week due to punctures. However, whilst they were on my car they performed excellently.

Excellent in the wet. Excellent in the dry. Only thing that let's them down is higher road noise than I would like, and although I have them all around I think as front tyres they could provide better/sharper turn in and feel.
