BMW tyre tips
- A star symbol on the sidewall marks a tyre approved by BMW for that model; it is the safest like-for-like choice.
- Run-flat tyres (RSC or RFT) let you drive about 80 km at 80 km/h after a puncture, but most should be replaced rather than repaired after running flat.
- Switching from run-flats to conventional tyres is legal but leaves you without a spare, so carry a sealant kit or call mobile tyre service.
- M cars and many X5 and X7 trims use staggered sizes; always replace in axle pairs with the same brand and pattern.
Common factory tyres on BMW: Bridgestone, Pirelli, Michelin, Continental, Goodyear.

When to replace the tyres
Most SUV tyres last 35,000–55,000 km in the UAE. Heavy SUVs wear tyres faster, especially if pressures are allowed to drop. Replace at about five years regardless of tread, and check the spare as well.
Compact SUVs typically need a load index of 100–104 with H or V rating. Large SUVs such as the Land Cruiser, Patrol and LX need 110–116, often with S, T or H rating on H/T and A/T tyres. Many European SUVs specify XL tyres. Never go below the placard load index on a heavy SUV.
