Tyres for BMW E93

I am looking to replace the Bridgestone runflat tyres on my wife's E93. Would you recommend moving away from run flat tyres and replacing with standard tyres? Looking for a tyre that would give a more comfortable ride while retaining a little of the performance characteristics.

No. If you aren't happy with the ride, switch to smaller rims with deeper profile runflats. Deeper profile tyres will ride better, last longer and reduce the chances of rim damage.
