We have also run Toyos in the stock size. Definitely noisy set of tires. They are currently still on our old e53 X5 (was bought by a family friend) and have at least 20,000 miles on them with tread depth still looking good >75%. I'd expect them to get 40,000 miles at least before replacement.


Our Conti DWS on the e70 only have 10,000 miles on them but are wearing well and definitely has a quieter ride. We certainly like them more than the Toyos, I think the model was the Proxes ST2.


As ard says, this is all anecdotal, but just adding a data point with our experience of the two tires.
