Tires OEM BMW or DEXTER

Before I switched I had 4 sidewall tears, one bent wheel, and one cracked wheel. $3000 in damage. After I switched, zero issues a year and a half later. Smoother ride and less road noise too.

I bought a 95 ranger that had a new set of these tires. I drove with the for about 1,000 miles before switching to the good year wranglers just because of preference. But I didn’t have any problems with them they were surprisingly quiet and rode smooth.

I’ve had them for 2 years now. Decent off-road grip (gravel, dirt, slow trail crawls, deep snow, soft sand). They’re good enough that with the price I’d get another set and it doesn’t as much to replace.

I used to always buy Goodyear sport tires for bmw 328i but recently I’ve purchased dextero they are half the price and perform well. I haven’t had any problems with them in the last 2-3 years I’ve bought them

For better handling and winter traction, I would consider getting wider tires.

HD thrust arms are an improvement without too much sacrifice. Better shocks as well. I’ve found tires make a huge difference with the E39.

Narrow, low-profile tires aren't as forgiving over potholes, especially when riding on the 20" wheels.

+1 used those on my e90 BMW last year during the 'record' snowfall and the were great.

I have dexteros on an older suburban, they seem to wear ok, traction is less than the pirellis that came off (really down graded) so they are ok and have been a safe tire they are probably half the price of the pirellis that were removed.
