I don't think Goodyear Eagles get enough love around here.

Just got the Bridgestones on my 2014 M Sport X5.
I like them so far, they were $1400 installed at Discount vs $2000 for the P Zeros.
I had little tread left on the p Zeros after 16500 miles, so these things are great. Most reviews are good for RF's so I'm happy right now

That's a pretty long run with run flats. I've read so many reviews people saying that at 10k they had to swap 'em ASAP.

I'm debating to go with either the Bridgestone Duelers (~$1350 shipped home) or the Pirelli P Zeros ($1,600 shipped home).

The only good reviews come from the Bridgestone DUELER H/P SPORT RFTs but I don't recall anyone here having them. The CONTISPORTCONTACT 5 SSR SUV seem good quality, but they're the priciest of all. I know the GL63 AMG comes as an OE option.
Where did you find Michelin PSS that fit our 20" setup? My search ended with tirerack and I figured they didn't come in that size cause I didn't see them listed.

I have the Conti SSR and love them so far. I'd buy them again if they weren't so much money and offered in a non run flat option.

No spirited driving, and if any, very minimal. Normal driving style

I was misinformed. I realized Michelin doesn't offer run flats in 275/40 (F) and 315/35 (R) set up. And yes, Contis are the priciest of them all...

...Do they offer non-runflats in those sizes in the super sports??? I'd be really interested in those. I have them on my 335i and LOVE them.

Unfortunately, not offered in 275/40 (only in 315/35) - according to Tire Rack.
