Tires OEM BMW or YOKOHAMA

I got a good deal on some Yokohama advan apex v601, I got like 5k miles on them and love them so far

Good ride, above average dry traction, hasn’t rained, above average mountain handling, not as quiet as Michelin or Continental at highway speed, but I got to keep some money I’d have spent otherwise.

Yokos are also a good choice and are good for more daily driving and highway driving and also last a long time

I like the Yoko Geolanders on my wife's Touareg that we use as dedicated snow tires. They are almost as quiet as the summer all seasons and are good enough in snow.

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.

Yokohama Advan Sport A/S 245-45-19. Stock is 225-45-19. They fit well and the performance difference over stock is very noticeable (handles much better).

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

I bought the avid ascend gt tires about 2 weeks ago. Quiet and smooth ride so far. Comparable to my previous Michelin tires.

My all-season tires however, and worn for the path. They are still drivable, but I will definitely be replacing tires before winter.

I was a little disappointed with the icy road performance of the Yokohama AVID GT that came on mine.
