After 2 front tyres 235/35/19.
I have 265/30/19 on the rears.

Should I go for Continental Sport Contact 3 or Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2?

I was leaning towards the goodyears...

The Eagle F1 AS2 is a generation ahead of the CS3, so between those two, go for the AS2.

I've had both and have been happy with both.
 
+1 for AS2s
Got them on the front of my Z3 and I'm very happy with them.

What rims you got? Can't imagine 19s on an E46 look great..?
 
The CS5P is the new Conti, no idea which I'd pick between those and the F1, my decision was made for be my Conti's refusal to do them in my size.
 
I have Vredestein Ultrac Sessantas on mine. Dunno if you can get them in 265 x 19" size, but I find them to be pretty good, especially given they are 3/4 the price of the Bridgestone RE040s and other equivalent tyres.
 
They don't look too bad, seem to have done well on tyre reviews too. I'll have a look when I come to change my rears but I have a feeling it might be better to keep the same all round.
Not too sure what the brand of my current rears are as I'm pretty sure the person I bought it from stuck part worns on from a car that had rubbed against the top of the side wall.
