Tires MICHELIN or Pirelli
I can only talk about the X-Ice Snow and for only one season, its probably the best performing winter tire I've used and is rather quiet. They claim they'll outlast their major competition but I can't verify.
The Michelin Road 5 and Road 6 have a "GT" version with an extra ply for heavier bikes. I have Road 5 GTs on my RT and Road 6 on another bike and they're pretty great.
Not sure your price range, but I have Pirelli Scorpion A/S Plus 3’s on my Q5. Really quiet as far as road noise. Love em.
I ditched the runflats and got Michelin pilot sport 5s. Best thing I ever did
I just swapped my JCW from run flats to Michelin Pilot Sports and it’s SOOOO much better.
I have the same CrossClimate 2 tires on my R60. Love them.
Good move! I’ve got 4 of those baby’s waiting for the new Clubman to arrive. Great tires. Noise reduces after a 1000 or so. Fantastic any time of year but especially in snow and rain.
I did the same and got the same tires, cross climate 2. Ride is so much smoother over potholes and bumps.
I have Michelins, but I don’t know. 45psi seems a little high. I keep mine around 35-40psi.
Dry weather and rain they're ok. I didn't like them on packed snow so much. Too much sliding and slipping.
