TIRES for my MCS --- jdsmin

Hi Folks
I want to change from the run flats to a tubeless tire. A 215 45 17 instead of the 205 45 17.

I want a tire that is sticky for playing and still have a good ride & quite, plus good to fair wet weather. Not asking for much Ha Ha

I would appreciate help from someone who has changed from the run flats.

Thanks............ jdsmin

You may get a lot of responses but I went to Continental Extreme Contact DWS in the size you are looking for. Really happy since they are do almost everything tire and they are at a good price.

You will be amazed at how much better your MINI will drive with real tires. I run Bridgestone Potenza Grids. These tires perform well in all seasons, ride well, handle well and are not too noisy IMO. http://bit.ly/d5qTZw
