Tires Pirelli or OEM BMW
in the summer i swap to 22” range wheels with pirelli scorpions and get 2.1 to 2.7 mi/kw. so best case scenario, i’m getting 380.
The Pirelli gives the nicest overall ride, with a sporty steering input. The continental gives the most overall grip and is best in deep snow (4+ inches). The Michelin feels the sportiest, But you feel every minor road imperfection.
It matters, but not enough for you to worry too much about it. When I did my first replacement on my m2 comp, I made sure they replaced them with the * spec and sure enough, they felt great.
But on my second time getting new tires, I just went aftermarket, spent less money and got a tire that fits my needs a little better.
Just get tires with more protection, like the Pirelli Cinturato Velo.
My stock tires of pirelli scorpion ms are fantastic but I have around 500 miles on the odometer. No complaints so far and seem quiet
Heavy air.
So this are the balancing bricks everyone is talking about
Originally came with new car 20k mile Perelli’s so I had to put new tires on fairly early
We are on the original launch edition pirellis on our R1S (20” wheels) and I can’t stand the noise either.
Beautiful 22" Pirelli Scorpion Zeros that blew out on me with about 25,000 miles (40,000 km) on them. Total garbage tires.
