Goodyear Eagle Sport All Season. Rear are at 3/32 at 12,500 lousy stinking miles. And they won't honor the 25K tread warranty because the other tire is at 4/32. A whole 1/32 means uneven wear. I'm done with them. If I'm going to replace tires every 13K miles, I'm not buying $350 tires. I have to wonder if it has to do with the roads around here. Many have oil and chip on them which makes it a much rougher drive and I would imagine chews up the tires more than a smooth road, but I'm not sure. I certainly do not drive spirited and I'm super disappointed in these tires. I got more out of my oem summer tires.

 

Goodyear gave me $80 back for mine. I bought Pirelli PZero AS +3

 

Agreeing here with those who are happy with the OEM Pirelli PZero All Seasons. 19,000 miles and counting. Haven’t measured, but visually I’m not close to any wear bars.

 

I did get the same mileage on the rears on both sets. PS4s are stickier tires though, so if you like cornering, they’ll outperform the Hankooks. The difference is noticeable. If you don’t like taking the M50 on twisty roads and driving spiritedly, I’d say get the Hankooks. I was happy with those tires too. The inner wear snuck up quickly on me though.

I spent a lot of $$$ on the M50, I want the best tires for it

 

14,200 miles and both rears are being replaced. Tread depth varies across the width from around 2.9mm to 4mm. Had punctures in both rears, one of which is too close to the edge for a permanent repair. Changing both with Pirelli P-Zero PZ4 19” BMW OEM tyres tomorrow (same as fitted on delivery). Fronts are around 5mm, so will probably need replacing before winter.

I tend to change them at 3mm as below that brings increased risk of aquaplaning and handling challenges. Not to mention greater chance of flats!

 

At my 2-year service yesterday:

Driver front: 5.5
Passenger front: 5.0
Driver rear: 5.0
Passenger rear: 4.5

21,500 miles on original Pirelli A/S.

Find it kind of odd that the driver front and passenger rear are the odd ducks. Anyone smarter than me have an explanation?

Planning on these lasting until spring (knocks on wood) and then I’ll have to decide if I want A/S again (because Oregon rain) or switch to summers.

 

What were those, mm?

Very even wear across all of the tires.
Quiet and preform well in dry and fairly good in wet conditions last winter. Don't generally drive too aggressively but considering others on this thread feel the tires have done well for us. When we do, these tires have handled very well.

Just replaced all 4 tires due to puncture in one near sidewall and coming into the wet season even though there was still a little life left on the fronts. Local dealer had a good deal on a set of 4 plus an alignment and a mail in rebate. Replaced with same tires.

Will have to take it back in as they forgot to program the tires into the computer when they replaced them.

 

Just thought I’d share these pics of both rear tyres! Both completely shredded on the inside edge!

The mobile repair guy said to have the tracking checked. Is this common with EVs because of the additional weight or could it just be the tracking?

You can understand why I thought there was a lot of tread left on the tyres! Visually they looked ok from the exterior - I’d have had to really climb under the car to see the rear inside edges!

…once it goes, it tears around the whole tyre! Glad the pressure warning lights made me stop! There was me thinking I just had a nail in the tyre!!

I’ve replaced with Michelin Pilot Sport 5s.

 

That looks like a serious tire failure, as the wear looks good/even across the entire width. What was their explanation?

 

68k miles on the car.

This is the front with 60k miles on it. Looks like it still has some life from the outside.

The inside edge tells a different story though.

Rears are at 36k miles and still seem to have a fair number remaining.

I have 1.5 more months until the snow tires go on. We will see what they look like then, but I might get a few miles out of them in the spring. These tires seem to last forever.

 

I just had the OEM Bridgestone Turanza tires rotated at America's/Discount Tire and at 10k have 5mm left, even across the treads including the inner shoulder. My driving is 50/50 freeway (~72mph) and backroads 45-55 mph.

 

Ten days ago, I replaced all four OE 19” Goodyear Eagle AS tires with Perelli P Zero AS +3 tires on my i4 M50 (after 28k miles). Prior to replacing the tires, I was getting range of 3.8 kWh per mile. Since replacing the tires, I’m getting 2.7 kWh per mile. The only things that have happened in the last 10 days are (1) scheduled service appointment where they replaced the cabin filter and checked the brakes, and (2) the tires. Does this sound right? Will the miles/kWh normalize after the tires are more broken in? Seems like a crazy drop in range for new tires that are the same size and are also all-season.

 

tire pressure is the same?

 

Just got my 1st "tire wear" notice for both rear tires in the car & app.

2022 M50 w/ almost 24k miles driven very tamely. Pirelli 245/40 R19 XL front & back (i.e., no stagger).

Plan to get local dealer to check depth and quote a price to replace. Will price match them to Costco (looks like $282 per tire less $60 if you buy 4 for Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 40) and see what happens.

Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

 

21,000 miles on the front tires this time around. I would have changed them earlier, but we’ve been having an extremely dry winter in SoCal this year. As you can see by the outside wear, I love going fast in the curves. Rotating out of tight curves with the RWD never gets old and always puts a smile on my face. With my first pair of tires I swapped all 4 out at 17,000 miles. I’ve been driving sportier since then and hit the wear bars on my rear tires at about 10,000 miles. So it’s replace the rear tires and the next time replace all 4 and repeat.😎

 

Check for the Conti DWS 06s. You do compromise vs the summers but I’m running this tire year round and have been very happy. It’s a good all rounder, with an emphasis on decent snow performance

 

My 2023 i4 e35 has 96,000 miles. I have been using my car driving for Uber, which is caused me to put a lot of miles on my car. The only maintenance that I’ve had to do on this car since I got it has been replacement of tires. Originally the car was fitted with Kuhmo Tires and the first set of rears did not last 10,000 miles after I replaced them with a set of Pilot Sport 4*. Each set of Michelins lasted less than 15,000 miles and cost about $1300 for 4 tires.
So when my car had 68,000 miles on it, was researching other brands. I came across a Brand called Lexani. I purchased a set from a company called Simple Tire and had them shipped to Ramona Tire in Mission Viejo for install. My car uses 19”. 245 40 19 on the front and 255 40 19 on the rear. The tire I used was the Lexani LX – Twenty. The cost for four tires including delivery was $537.18. Installation cost me $20 per tire at Ramona Tire. The costs of the tires also included a road hazard warranty. As of this post I have driven 28,000 miles on these Lexani LX-Twenty tires I still have enough tread left for another 15,000 miles of use. My front tires have 8/32 of tread remaining, and my rears have 6/32 remaining. These tire are absolutely amazing. My electric consumption did not change any thing dramatic and road noise is pretty much the same as Michelins. I don’t think I will ever go back to using the main expensive brands.

 

Anyone has any experience with fitting the Continental Sportcontact 7 on his I4?
I'm on the 20 inch F255/ R285.

Not liking the Pirelli P-Zero all that much..

Newly mounted Continental SportContact 7

i4 model - M50 (255/35/20 & 285/30/20)
Tire miles - 220 mi (355 km)
Tire noise - About the same as the Pirelli P-Zero PZ4
Tire performance - The highlight of this tyre, way more convincing than the Pirelli's.
Tire wear - Just fitted them, can't say.
Additional thoughts - This tyre really makes this heavy car way more precise at corner entry, mid-corner grip is also a bit better and keeps this car firm at the projected line. Breaking performance feels somewhat the same as the Pirelli's. On the limit the car is predictable but in the end you can't hide the weight when sliding around ;-)

I would prefer it over the Pirelli's but only when you are looking for a tyre that feels convincing when driving spirited like I do. If it's pure comfort you are looking for, then the Pirelli's will do just fine.

You went from PZ4 to which tire? Small detail

 

Newly mounted Pirelli P Zero All Season Plus 3 that replaced the OEM Pirelli P Zero All Seasons that lasted ~29K miles. Rears wore more quickly than the fronts with specifically more wear on the inside rear tires.

i4 model - M50 (245/40/19 & 255/40/19)
Tire miles - 200 mi (355 km)
Tire noise - About the same as the Pirelli P-Zero AS
Tire performance - I'm a big fan of Pirellis, have had them on multiple cars.
Tire wear - Just fitted them, can't say. New Pirellis have updated compound & a higher UTQG rating vs. the OEM PZero AS.
Additional thoughts - I also considered the Continental ExtremeContact DWS 06 Plus, which has better winter performance per the updated Tire Rack comparison video at a similar price point to the Pirelli PZero AS Plus 3.

6/32 front tread depth even across the tire
2/32 rear tread depth at the most inner tread

At 2/32 interior tread on the rear I had enough. I'm not looking to drive until they are shredded. I had a 20% off coupon that I could use once and I did not think I could run a second set of rears before the original fronts were too low. So I changed all four.

After changing my mind 17 times I purchased the same OE tire.
Really the only thing I don't like about these are the price. I'm happy with the handling, wear (other than the inside of the rears), wet traction, dry traction and there is no issue with light show especially when they have some good tread on them. They did get a little louder over time on concrete. But that is to be expected as the lower compound tends to be harder.

I cross shopped various other UHP AS tires.
The Goodyear Eagle OE - I've not been happy any other UHP AS I have tried with regard to pavement noise.
Continental DWS 06+ - Range concerns
Michelin Pilot Sport AS4- Range concerns
Pirelli P Zero AS +3 - Range concerns

Just as a side note, and I don't want to derail the thread, Tire Rack has suggested many times that I stick with a electric tuned tire. They said the construction is different and I would not be happy with the wear on a standard XL load tire. However, each time they could not articulate what that construction difference is.

sidewalls and inner edge of tread blocks are designed to better handle the extra load and torque, check out the Pirelli website

 

2023 i4 M50 stock 19" staggered setup

I swapped out the OEM all-season Pirelli PZero something-or-other (why does Pirelli start off so many completely different tire models with the same "PZero"?) before the first winter.
But the forum member to whom I sold the tires reported a cumulative 39k on the rear tires between the two of us.

I replaced them with the all-season Vredestein Quatrac Pro (same staggered setup).
I can't report on the front wear accurately because the front right was destroyed by my wife on a curb (definitely her fault!) and I'm not exactly sure at what mileage it was replaced, then the front left was destroyed by my wife on a pothole (definitely not her fault, as that road looks like land mines went off!).
However, the rears were at almost exactly 30k.
I measured the remaining tread with a digital caliper, not specific to tires, but I found ~6.7/32" outer shoulder, ~5.0/32" center, ~3.8/32" inner shoulder.
So definitely showing the all-too-typical uneven wear pattern, but doesn't seem that bad?
(Unfortunately, I had to replace all four tires, since the Pro has been replaced by the Pro+. I came so close yet so far to finding a matching front left from UTires.com, but alas not an exact match. Perhaps I could have replaced only the fronts since the Pro isn't all that different than the Pro+, but ... the $ savings vs the potential problems don't register well on the WorthItMeter.)

 

How have you liked the Quatrac Pro+ since you put them on? Mainly, comfort, noise, and efficiency? I've got these on my shortlist and am trying to decide do I go summer performance (OEM Bridgestone Turanza, Pirelli, or Michelin Pilot Sport 4S) and keep switching out to my winters (Michelin X-Ice), or do I go all season and get the Vredestein.

 

^sounds like good news for me with the long lifespan of the Quatrac Pros.

Yay!

 

2022 i4 m50 21,000 total miles
Pirelli P Zero Summer
front: 255/35R20
rear: 285/30R20

I am on my 4th set of rear tires and 2nd set of front tires. This is not just because of my driving style, although the first year probably was.

I am planning to try the Hankook 20" tires for my next set. Has anyone had experience with the 20" Hankook ion evo all season tires?

 

Wow! I am on the 19" PZero Summer tires and I have 19.8k miles on them. I don't drive like a grandpa and I am meticulous about my tire pressures. I run the fronts about 2 PSI higher than factor spec. Rears are worn more but I am sure I'll make it to the winter before replacement. When I do I am going with a full set of the Star spec Michelin PS4. I am huge Michelin fan boy. I really want to put PS4S's on, but the loss of range and faster wear may not be worth it.

 

I bought the car used with 13.6k miles and 3/4 tires were original 20" summer Pirelli rubber. Previous owner put one all season tire on at some point...sigh.

Good news is the car is at 31.5k miles and currently at the dealership getting all new Continental DWS all season tires put on as all 4 corners were worn down to 4cm. Obviously very happy with the tire life of the Pirellis, but I needed something that could handle the colder temps or possible snow, and didn't want to have to deal with 2 sets of tires.

 

You’re going to like the Conti DWS, perfect balance of good enough snow/winter and still fun in the summer too

 

i4 model: 2022 i4 eDrive40 19" staggered Pirelli PZero A/S
Tire miles: 4,200, they had been mounted less than 6 months prior to purchase.
Tire noise: nothing really noticeable
Tire performance: can't complain, similar performance to cars I've had with DWS
Tire wear: 8/32 front tread, 7/32 rear tread. Even across tires
Additional thoughts: First car I've owned with Pirellis, so far so good, however once it's time to replace them, I might go with Continental DWS as I've used those in 3 of my previous cars and they've been great, or I might go all OEM and get * tires
