Tires OEM BMW or Continental

Continental Tires

I'm on GP 4 seasons and they've been great for 7000km and counting. I really should have bought them again. They're a bit worn but they can still hang on for a few more months.

Pros: great for 7000km
Cons: a bit worn
Mileage: 7000 km

No way. They are far too expensive for commuting duties. I commuted 8000km this year which would have required an expensive tire change just over halfway through (I get about 5-6000km out of the GP5000s I run on my road bike). The Contact Urbans I use instead for commuting aren't *that* much slower, but they're *far* more durable (over 11,000km on my current set and still going strong) and *much* cheaper to boot.

Pros: more durable, much cheaper
Cons: GP5000 too expensive
Mileage: 8000 km

I’ve gotten more than my moneys worth from extended warranties and tire/wheel across five different cars. I think they are well worth it

Pros: well worth it
Vehicle: BMW

Well. Considering I’ve had two tires and one rim replaced in 8 months with no charge… I’m calling the wheel and tire plan a win.

Pros: wheel and tire plan win

I ride the GP 4 Season 700x28 in urban Memphis, TN, US with tons of glass, potholes, and debris. I find them to be the "sweet spot" balance of puncture/rolling resistance. They don't feel quite as quick as GP5000s to me but far far better than gatorskins, or armadillos, or other "tough" tires.

Pros: balance of puncture/rolling resistance
Cons: not as quick as GP5000s

Yeah, no problems, not a single puncture with the GP5000. In contrast, I recently tried Conti RIDE tour and ooh myy good, the traction is garbage compared to the GP5000. Instantly bought other tires.

Pros: no punctures with GP5000
Cons: Conti RIDE tour garbage traction

The Continental DWS06 is a huge step up for daily use and they hook noticeably better, but they’re still an all-season, so don’t expect drag-radial levels of grip you’ll still chirp a bit if you launch hard.

Pros: huge step up, hook better
Cons: still an all-season

I have the DWS06+ on my 24 PP, world of a difference versus the perelli summers that came stock. Truly felt like I would die on those things sometimes

Pros: world of a difference
Cons: felt like I would die

wenn du autobahn f\u00e4hrst tauschen, wenn das ein reiner stadtflitzer mit h\u00f6chstgeschwindigkeiten unter 100 ist lass drauf.

Pros: Stadtflitzer unter 100
Cons: Autobahn fahren tauschen
