Tires Pirelli or Continental
Pirelli P-zero RS ate my tire of choice now. I think them and the GP5000 are the two best choices from what I've used, with it really coming down to personal preference and whomever has a better sale
I used tubeless 700x32 GP5000 AS TR all last year (and will again this year) and aside from the price, I have no complaints. The roads around here are always covered in trash... broken glass, chunks of metal, whatever. No significant punctures even though I definitely ran over some of that crap. I feel like they wore down a bit faster than the GP Four Seasons I ran for several years before that, though.
Switched to 195/55r20 all round on my wife’s i3s. They fit perfect, the front 5j is just enough for proper fitting. Car felt more composed and comfortable afterwards and so much more choice in that size. Running the Continental AllSeasonContact2 which suits our conditions here in Ireland.
Continental extreme contact dws. Best tires ever.
I personally like **Continental Ultracontact** for silent run for a non EV TIRE.
I swapped my bridge stones with Continental DWS06+ and it transformed the car. Ultimately I wanted to just get Summers since it never snows here and I never drive in snow,, but I am on a square set up (non m sport) and the continental were still better than the summer options that I had.
17k miles no problems, only thing is the OEM pirellis (if you get the 22s) will only last 15-20k miles with some spicier driving.
pirelli stottozero.
I had Pirelli Scorpion Zeros on my X5 and hated them. I switched to Michelin CrossClimate 2’s and it feels much more planted to the road.
I am looking at replacing the OEM Pirellis on my '26 R1T with the new Hankook ION HT. I don't trust the Priellis, even with plenty of tread, in the CO mountains.
