I had about 6500Ks on the RFT conti's. They came from the dealer since new. They still have a lot of tread on them: at least 60%. The conti treadwear rating is 280 so much higher than bridgestone re050 (140) and pirelli Eufori (180).

I went to dealer last weekend, I can see new BMW now comes with Dunlop RFT (523i) and Michelin RFT (335i Sport). Seem like BMW keep on switching its tyre suppliers.

I got the Perelli Pzero Rosso from ebay. They are used but still got plenty of tread 80%. They are manufactured in 2005 so they are not too old. Got them for $100 each.
