BMW 218d Active Tourer Tire Review Highlights

Driving on mostly town for 100 average miles
Like other reviewers mentioned, the tires are disastrous in any wet conditions. Just went through a puddle and then my tires would skid in straight line braking… unbelievable

I am a big fan of Michelin PSS tires but this is just not up to par at all. Took delivery of my XPENG G6 OEM tires for only 10 days and now I have to pay 15k to get a new set of tires

The tires are just unsafe stay away from them

Driving on a combination of roads for 1000 miles
Fitted on my BMW X5 with staggered 20 inch rims. First impression was horror. But......due to idiot fitters putting 52psi in , and not balanced correctly. Upon putting pressure correct, and getting rebalanced at a proper tire fitters, I don't know any difference from my previous Bridgestone Duellers. Or continentals. No problem whatsoever. Not Star rated for BMW X5 but no probs with transfer box ,so must be consistent on diameter. Look good , cheap, and as my X5 chews rears on inner tread making contis etc uneconomical , I think these harder compound half the price will last a lot longer. Most reviewers would know the difference if these were fitted without their knowing. There aren't many awful budget brands nowadays. Some are even the previous compound and tread / mould of big brands with different make on the mould

OEM for the i4e40. The tire has very obvious priorities. Rolling resistance and noise. It really excels in these two areas. But thankfully it is not useless in all other key aspects. Dry, wet, braking, feedback, they are all ok. Not great, but not mediocre either. Great choice for this car, but I will choose something better for the next round, even if I give away a couple of dozen miles of range

Driving on mostly country roads for 3800 average miles
Great tires for high demanding bikes and bikers, the quality the rubber is excellent if you are one of those extreme bikers that wanna lean yourself daily at angles over 50 degrees, the tire feel with the road is funtastic. It doesnt last much 7.000km was the most i could take out of this tire but it was 1500km to many of what they really can assure, the center of the tire its extremely soft so if you do alot of straights and lean max around the 35 to 40 degrees and daily use less then 35 be prepared to have a square tire after 2500 3000 km, the tire is magnificent on dry and thats about it, wont be getting it again there are better options at a lower price for average sport usage that will last alot longer then this one without performance decrease on a middleweight naked.

Driving on a combination of roads for 5500 spirited miles
I had these tires fitted to my 430i G22 from BMW when I collected the car from them. This tire behaves in a very strange way. When cold, the tire doesn't inspire confidence and, especially in the wet, tends to oversteer a lot, not being easy to control. On the other hand, it manages hot temperatures very badly, again loosing grip after 30+°C and making the car understeer a little, but at least they were managable. The real issue i had was the very short lifespan of the rear tires, complitely gone after 9000km of both normal and spirited driving (never tracked the car, of course). I will never buy this tire again, and I can advise you to do the same.

Driving on mostly country roads for 100 easy going miles
Check Price Specifications Size: 255/55R201110H XL Maximum Payload: 2337 lbs Weight: 34 lbs It’s great if you own tires with perfect wet grip. They are ideal for safe driving, stability, balance and the Michelin Defender LTX M/S is one such product. This impressive feature is improved by the design and construction materials of the product.

Driving on a combination of roads for 400 average miles
I really am not sure what the people giving positive reviews of these tires are thinking, but I had four brand new ones for the dealer. I have zero confidence in these tires to deal with anything other than the most mundane driving. Straight line at 30 miles an hour in the dry, you'll be fine. I have found in the wet under even the slightest acceleration the front end is squirming around, cross a road marking or white line and they seem to just aquaplain over it, even if it's dry. When alone in the car I decided to test them out, you need to know what your tires can get you out of and within 1 minute had managed to get the back end out, accelerating out of bend at 10mph. Having just come out of a 2018 C-Class coupe, so far I am not enjoying the BMW driving experience and I can only think this is down to the tires, shockingly bad. With the winter coming up I will be switching these up for something more reliable. Regardless of the drivers saying 'don't race' as if that's a way to make the tires safe - I don't race - you need to know that if you need to accelerate away quickly, brake sharply or need to get yourself out of danger another way, that the tires are going to let you down. Zero confidence in these to do that.

Did more than 65000 km with them at four years. Quite stale tire. Good wear resistance. Not so good on wet surface but never had aquaplaning
