Tires MICHELIN or OEM BMW

Oh then 1000% get Michelin pilot sport a/s 3+ not even a debate. They ARE sports car tires, handling is off the chain, they have stupid long mileage warranty, they are phenomenal in the rain, and they are fantastic in light snow (say 3" or less) and light ice. But they are definitely dead silent.

I run Michelin Premier A/S and I’ve really enjoyed them. I also run my tire a little bit taller and more narrow than factory. I like the taller sidewall for ride comfort.

I popped a tire on the lip of one of California's ubiquitous ~~potholes~~ sink holes. If I ever buy another "no spare" car it better have airless tires like the [Michelin uptis](https://michelinmedia.com/michelin-uptis/) on it standard.

The AS Pilot Sport 4’s (not to get confused with Pilot Sport 4S) are are almost up to par with Michelin X-Ice in the snow and are amazing in dry conditions.

Michelin tires are a softer rubber than Bridgestone tires. This means that Michelin tires will give you a slightly better grip on the road, but the trade off is tire life/wear.

Michellines have always been better, but you always want to look at reviews for your specific tire.

With that said, I got the Michelin Defender LTX for my car and I've never experienced better traction, especially during rain and a 2-3 inches of water on the road. You barely even feel it.

I will say, we got a set of Michelin Cross Climate 2s at Costco for our Subaru Impreza and love them.

I got michelin xice3 I think on my cadillac for Toronto slush and snow it's great

Personally, I would not get the CrossClimates if you are in Florida. They are like a hybrid winter tire with the snowflake and would probably be great in the rain but might wear quickly down there. I put a set (the car version) on our Corolla before we sent it to our kid up north and they were okay but felt a little "clompy" and loud over bumps.
