After 28,000 miles, I am about to replace the OEM Bridgestone RE 050A run-flats on my Z4. Has anyone had any experience with the Continental Conti SportContact 2 SSR run-flat tires? They are listed by Tire Rack as
TIA

Have you considered dropping run-flats altogether? Every Z4 owner that's ever done it has RAVED about the improvement to ride and handling that good regular tires gives - check

Yes, I'm also considering the Goodyear F1 GS-D3 along with a 12v air compressor & flat plugging kit. But if the run-flat Contis perform anywhere near the (non run-flat) Sport2 tires, I would use them, as the price is almost the same as the Goodyears.

I understand the Michelin & Goodyear runflats are mendable with smaller tred punctures - if economy is also an issue, you may wish to consider them.
