Correct Wheels and Tires

BMW recommends using only those wheels and tires that are approved by BMW for the respective vehicle model, because even tires of the nominal size may rub against the body due to manufacturing tolerances and cause a serious accident. BMW does not guarantee the safety of using non-recommended wheels and tires, as it cannot assess their suitability.◄

Information on permissible combinations of wheels and tires is available from a BMW Service Center.

The combination of wheels and tires affects various systems, such as ABS or DSC.

Choosing an incorrect combination may adversely affect their operation.

To maintain normal handling characteristics, fit tires of the same brand and with the same tread pattern on all wheels. If damaged, restore the recommended combination of wheels and tires as soon as possible.

Recommended Tire Brands

BMW recommends specific tire brands for each tire size.

Recommended tires can be identified by the distinct BMW marking on the sidewall.

When used correctly, these tires meet the highest quality and safety standards.

Runflat Tires

When replacing tires or changing from summer to winter tires and vice versa, fit only Runflat tires to the vehicle, since this model is not equipped with a spare wheel. A BMW Service Center will gladly advise you on this matter.

For safety reasons, BMW recommends replacing Runflat tires rather than repairing them.◄
