What tires are shipping with the 05's?
I have an '05 waiting for me at the dealer, but can not get it for a while. I have an MC/S with 17 runflat all-season option. What tires will I be getting? What do these tires cost on the open market?
MINI's tire choices haven't changed in the past four years, so I'll base my guesstimate on that.
17" Summer: Either Dunlop 9000 or Pirelli Euforia. I can't figure out why you get one or the other, if there is a reason at all.
17" All-Season: Goodyear Eagle RS-A
The RS-A is over $200/each, which is over $200 more than they're worth, IMO

From tirerack.com (retail prices are much higher- way too high at the dealer)
All in 205/45-17 size runflat
Pirelli eufori@ (Ultra High Performance Summer) are $165 each
Dunlop SP Sport 9000 DSST (Max Performance Summer) are $225 each
Goodyear RS-A (all season) are $232 each
