tyres for E55

[rufus135]

I currently have two contisport contact and two P Zeros on my 2003 E55k. The rears are getting a bit thin and I wondered if anyone has experience of the Dunlop Sport Maxx or the Toyo Proxes T1R ? Or if any other recommendations exist based on road noise/wet grip.

I've used T1-R in the past and was very pleased. I also think the new T1-S has one of the lowest weights around - which is good for the all important unsprung weight.
I'm very pleased with Falken FK452 - great value for money.

Falken 452 very good, and reasonable as well.

Yep, Falken FK452 on the back of my C36 too. Got mine from Event Tyres who were as cheap as Camskill + fitting but came to my house and did the work.

I've got 452s on the back of my E55 - no problems at all and once you've bedded them in they grip very well

A friend has had Dunlop Sport Maxx several times on his Saab 95. He drives enthusiastically and rates them for good overall performance.

Thats all very interesting thanks. Think I'll have a look at the Falcons.
