Hi Malcolm

Welcome to the Forum

All Run Flat tyres tend to generate more noise as they approach end of life tyres also tend to be very personal choice. My X5 4.6is runs a staggered set up 20" rims 285/40/20 Front 315/35/20 to protect the drive train I change front and rear together, and I have run Bridgestone Michelin and Pirelli. My E70 X5 same size wheels is currently on Continental

Of all the tyres the choice is difficult between Continental and Michelin for road noise wear and fuel consumption

When I ran the AMG E55's and AMG CLS 63 tyres never lasted very long no matter what the make if rear tyres lasted 15 to 20k my son said I was driving like Miss Daisy 🤣
