215s tires questions

:dunno: I wan to know if there is another brand of tires beside the Dunlop..cause the tires are noisy and heavy, i want to change to non runflats..Any ideas guys??

looks like only Dunlop make the 285 35 R21 and the 325 30 R21...... can the 214s wheel size fit on 215??

From looking at the handy dandy Wheel pic site, I don't see how Style 214 wheeled tires could fit on Style 215s, as the 214s are 20" and the 215s are 21 inch tires...while it isn't my car, and I didn't spend an evening searching the web, the only tires I see from a cursory search are the Dunlops you ref'd. Part of the downside of running 21s: there isn't much demand, or much mkt and thus, few/one co. is making them.

dunlop is the only 1 tire made for the 215's they are made specially for the bmw 21 rim

i'm curious to know if anyone else has run different width 21s?
