my biggest complaint, and probably my only real one, is the road noise. The interior can be pretty loud, especially on the freeway. I’m fairly confident that most of this comes down to the stock tires, because otherwise the car feels tight and well put together.
Testing out these PIRELLI CINTURATO WEATHERACTIVE tires. I’m impressed so far. Not bad at all.
Removed mine the first day. The actual removal of the blades may leave some plastic marring from the tabs- which rubs off pretty easily. HOWEVER- the longer you leave them on- the more dirt will get between the tabs and the wheel itself; this is what scratches the wheel
I have Pirelli Cinturato P7 A/S run-flats on my '21 X3 xDrive (same size) and had them on E90 as well for past several years. They do quite well in E WA winters, quiet and smooth.
Pirelli WeatherActive would be worth looking into.
You got 40,000 miles from a set of Pirelli tires? I’ve never hard good lucky with that brand.
All that carbon fiber to make it light and easy to flick into corners - yet bro's never been past 15° lean. Waste of good rubber.
Last Pirelli set I barely got 3 years before the grip gave out.
Whatever the repair costs add on a set of new Michelin pilot sport 4s as pirellis are god awful in the rain. Had my car hydroplane in 50 degree medium rain weather in P zeros.
What are those tires like, the pirellis for me were terrible for handling so I changed to Michelin pilot Sport 4s 245/35/20 front and 285/30/20 rear and they are way smoother and quieter and grip so much better
