Michlen Pilot Sports zero pressure (ZP or run flats) 345/30/19. I have 24,000 miles on them so far and they still are not at the wear marks, although since I added the procharger it won't be long!!

These are probably the best non R compound tires that will fit.

I wish they made these in some bigger sizes. My brother has a set of these on his E55 and swears they are the best thing he's ever bought. He can't say enough about how good they "hook."
