228i M Sport Tire options?

Rupes · 07-07-2014, 07:05 AM

Anyone verify the type of tires offered on the 228i M Sport Package? It says the following:

• 18" double-spoke 461M wheels w/ mixed summer tires
• 18" double-spoke 461M wheels w/ all-season tires

Would be interested to know what exactly the mixed summers and all-seasons are.

Thanks.

Pretty certain the summer tire is Michelin Pilot Sport, which are great tires.

They're run-flats. Pretty sure mine are Bridgestone S001s. I took them off in favor of Michelin A/S3s.

The track package will have the Michelin PSS though.

Mine had the Bridgestones which don't seem bad so far, but I haven't tried the PSS's except for a test drive in the M235.

Yup, mixed summers are Bridgestone S001 run flats. 225 front and 245 rear. I couldn't tell you what tires the all seasons are, but they are 225 square.

The all seasons are probably Pirelli Cinturato P7s, that's what came on mine. Might depend on the climate in your market.
