Tires Falken or OEM BMW
I ditched the stock tires at 20k and went with Falken Wildpeak A/T and it drives perfect.
Working as a ski guide in the Canadian Rockies and running the AT3W on my Tacoma and I love them. Driving snowy highways before plows and un-maintained FSRs they are phenomenal. The only downside is on glare ice they struggle but with that kind of tire any would.
I’ve got a set of Wildpeak AT Trails on my ‘17. Had them for maybe 3 years now. Went with 235/60r17 because I’ve got 17x8 wheels(1in wider than stock). Been a bit louder, but that’s the way ATs are. Being that they’re heavier, there’s more weight getting forced towards the body of the vehicle when you hit bumps/jolts. That extra weight is gonna jolt the body more than the lighter tires/wheels. Mine went from riding like a touring car to feeling like an actual SUV after the change.
For 3 seasons I get good year reliants (100 USD each) for winter falken aklimate that are 3 peak rated (140 USD each) no issues in lite to moderate snow. I don't have extreme snow in Texas.
I agree with top comment. Had Falken Wildpeak Trail on three different cars now. Best all around tire for an amazing price.
Running 32 psi on mine 225/60r17 for over a year and while a little stiffer than the stock ones, that is expected and not even noticeable after a while.
I'm on set number 5 right now, and they are one of the best all terrain tires for ride quality I've driven, and I've driven Subarus for over 40 years.
I get them for my 13 highlander.
No complaints at all.
Wild peaks have been good to me for the most part. One caveat I’ve seen after 3 years and 15k miles is they aren’t great in the snow (at least with big wide 35s)
Just took my Wildpeaks off and good riddance. Best snow capable tire out there but their tread life is an absolute joke. Running the BFG trail terrains now.
