    BMW X6 2011 tyres

    Hi Guys,

    I have a BMW X6 35i with dunlop RFT. These tyres have become very noisy and the control is not good.

    I have read a few post regarding RFTs not as good as the regular ones in terms of performance and noise.

    Can somebody recommend good tyres for my car (for RFT or Regular)?

    My wheel specs are:
    275-40R20-106w
    315-35R20-110W

    Hi Ali,

    We have pirelli on board as sponsors as well as Orange Auto who provide good discounts on Continental tyres. I've personally heard good reviews on both with the preference of Conti's for smoothness and less noise.

    Suggest you give them both a call and get a quote for your tyres.

    Contact details can be found in our sponsors sections.

      Hi Wasif,
      I Contacted Pirelli today, after the discount they were charging AED9000 for the RFT tyres. I could not get a quote from Orange Auto for Continental tyres.

      However I went out and bought bridgestone dueller H/P sports RFT which have good reputation and a reasonable price. The noise have disappeared for now while driving ... lets hope it stays like this for a while :)

      Thanks for your suggestion.

      Regards,
      Ali

        Most welcome Ali. Sorry we were not able to be of much help. The Pirelli RFT's are very expensive. but yea, i personally would have opted for non RFT's as they have dont have the reinforced shoulders and sidewalls which make the tyres harder and hence noisier. Hope the noise level stays low with the bridgestones (they are good tyres as well!)
