The Pirelli's perform well and they are the best choice. The
Continental TS810S SSR comes in that size also, but people are not very fond of it.

Is that a big deal? Will they fit still?
Also, do you sell the BMW wheel-caps that fit in these, or do I get that from BMW?
Also, the tire pressure sensors are out of stock, any idea when you'll have them ?
Thanks!

The A7's fit, as do all the other wheels listed for the vehicle. The A7 takes the BMW caps as listed above. We do sell BMW caps for $6 each. We expect sensors the first week of October.

They are decent for the money, and much better than all season tires, but won't ever be confused with the best in class by Bridgestone, Michelin and Dunlop.
