[QUOTE="Hsianers, post: 558387, member: 24708"] Daniel - am already running 19"s on my e39... and the 20" can't be any worse than the 19" run flats... so just need to be careful for potholes and speed bumps Anyway, my view on Z / ZR rated tyres is that they are only good for around 15K km(20K kmmax). They go off even if lots of thread wear.. I shudder when I hear friends trying to get 30K or 40K out of the tyre... I have heard of quite a few storied of the sidewall suddenly going on these when run past 20K km and if that happens at speed, you will likely have a pretty bad accident or at the very least, damage your rims.. so it doesn't pay to scrimp on rubber IMHO [/QUOTE]
