![]() ![]() Man, what a ride improvement they were, not to mention the increase in gas mileage as an added bonus. So, I went from a new set of P Zero's run flats to a new set of the Continentals within the same day. ![]() Took 1/2hr to fix and about 15 more minutes to refill the tire with air and I was back on my way. I did have to repair a puncture in one on the X3 from a screw and I was lucky enough to notice it when the car was parked. I them put them on two other cars, loved them on those cars too. In fact, I put 30K+ miles on the Continentals over the years and loved them. I loaded up the storage area under the cargo floor with an air pump, jack, socket wrench, vise-grips, tire plug kit, spray water bottle and drove the car from New York to Florida, then to California, back to Florida and finally back to NY. I removed them and put on a set of non run flat Continental Extreme Contact DWS. The dealer was kind enough to replace them at their cost but of course I was still stuck with run flats. Because they were staggered, rotation was not possible and they wore to the point of causing harsh vibration at highway speed within 900 miles. I bought a 2011 X3 that came with Pirelli P Zero staggered run flats. ![]()
