Tires OEM BMW or Firestone
i drive 2000-2500 miles a year and a set of firestone multihawks lasted me 3 years while driving like an absolute bellend flooring it every chance i got and being hard on the brakes. for £50 a tyre i think i did quite well considering i abused tf out of them.
I'm in Canada but my summer tires are Firehawk Indy 500s and they grip really well, even in the rain. Would definitely recommend.
I live in Wisconsin, used to switch snow tires to summer tires every year on my 2x4 2008 Ford ranger, I just went to the tire shop, asked for snow tires, had the Firestone ones, and some cheap ones off tire rack, both worked fine.
I've used the weathergrip on a subaru crosstrek before and was pretty happy with them. They lasted a good while and always got me where I had to go. Not nearly as much grip as a dedicated snow tire, but they were run year round and lasted 50k miles, so it's a decent compromise.
I run Firestone Indy 500. But I only drive it in the summer. Was the best Bang for my dollar up here.
Best AT's out there for snow that I've found is Firestone Destination XTs (exculding their AT2's due to your vehicle).
I ran Indy500 tires on my GTI and they are very good .
The Firestone FT140 are annoyingly loud.
I got the wheel and tire warranty when I bought my car. They’ve already replaced 4 run flats for free. I got 2 blowouts in the last 2 weeks hitting pretty average sized potholes that I’ve never had issues before with. Run flats suck.
Dang Firestone charges me 170 and can’t even clean the old wheel weight adhesive (from them) off, plus they overinflated each tire by 10psi. Maybe time to go somewhere else, I mean at least they haven’t damaged my rims like I’ve dealt with almost every other time.
