Replacement run flat tyres?

I currently have Dunlop SP Sport Maxx GT 245/40R19 on the front and Dunlop 275/35R19 on the rear of my BMW 530D M Sport. I am looking to replace them and have been quoted a huge amount by the BMW main dealer. Other garages have quoted less for other tyre manufacturers (Goodyear and Bridgestone).

Is it best to stick with what is already fitted to the car or are the Goodyear or Bridgestone alternatives just as good?
