Tires OEM BMW or DEBICA

Tires still alive with 5.5 on rear and 6.5 on front.

Still running on the og tires(1 summer set, 1 winter).

Im still on OEM all season tires and I figure I can hit 40k before replacement.

Zic din experienta personala: niste cauciucuri de iarna Debica vs Michellin CrossClimate 2, prefer Debica de iarna.

Am 320i lci rwd, si nu am nevoie de xdrive. Daca ai anvelope de calitate poti sa mergi si la munte.

Rwd are costuri reduse de intretinere fata de xdrive, mai usor, mai eficient.

Man, eu am avut debica all season pe prima mea masina, la 200 de lei bucata, nu exista diferenta de zgomot (pe un golf 4 ofc), nu alunecau si franau corespunzator.

BMW, to achieve superior handling, uses an aggressive negative camber for the rear wheels. So the inner of the rear tires will wear out faster by design. It is not an alignment issue.

And one tire due to a bulge. The tire was not cheap ($500) but I let the dealership deal with it rather than getting it done cheaper elsewhere as I didn't want to drive on a massive bulge.

Im 6000 miles in on my i4 m50 and the tires are about to be replaced. Its a super powerful and super heavy car and it will eat up tires like nothing.

As others mentioned, run-flats are more suspectable to sidewall damage. They're also heavier and noisier. Also, you may have a wider selection of tires if you go with non-runflat.
