BMW 330ci Tire Review Highlights

Writing about the Debica Presto UHP2 given 54% (245-45-18-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 2000 average miles
Average tires really.
They perform decent enough on dry tarmac, but the grip is lackluster..
On wet the car likes to slide around, which isn't necessarily a bad thing for me, but the traction control goes in party mode if you leave it ON and if you are not careful.
They seem to hit the limit pretty fast when I'm pushing it on the curves or twisty roads. Doesn't really inspire a lot of confidence.
Tires were bought new, DOT 2023.
They are not bad as a budget tire, but you will be much well of by spending a bit and getting a decent set of Michelin's for example.
Have a set of Michelin summer tires that have started cracking, and are good for the bin and I swear they still have more traction that these.
Definitely won't cheap out next time..

Writing about the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 given 90% (255-35-18-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 40000 spirited miles
I had these on my car for 6 years before they started cracking to the point of the tires losing air. There was still a lot of tread left, but they had to be replaced for safety reasons. The grip was very good in both wet and dry, and they are surprisingly comfortable for what they are, max performance tires. They're not as grippy as the pilot sport 4s or super sport, which is to be expected, but for strictly street driving, they're hard to fault. I have had various toyo proxes, hankook s1 evo, bridgestone RE040, RE050, goodyear eagle F1, and none of them comes close to the ps4, at least to me. None of them lasted as long, and the michelin ps4 was just better overall.

Writing about the Goodyear UltraGrip Performance Plus given 79% (225-45-18-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 15000 average miles
Excellent at snow and mud!! But not at all suitable for ice. My previous tires Michelin Alpina 5 have much better grip on ice, but bad on snow. Dry road - perfect. Wet road and extreme braking - be careful and try do not overspeed. Comfort - acceptable but not for sport coupe with frameless doors, noisy for BMW 3 series. Wear, handling and road feedback for 18" tires - good. After 2 years and 2 winters of wearing - condition is still perfect. Recommend for snowy roads without any doubts.

Writing about the Bridgestone Potenza S007A given 70% (225-45-17-)
Driving on mostly country roads for 5000 spirited miles
I'm usually go for mountain driving. - Way better dry grip than PS4. - Sidewall support are excellent, really fast steering response, gives you more confidence to throw the car into corners. - When driving normally in wet it feels safe but do not attempt to drive aggressively. - Dry drip loss a lot after around 2000km, oversteer occurs more frequently, but still easy to handle and feels safe. - wear out at 8000-9000km

Driving on a combination of roads for 1000 spirited miles
BMW E30 330i Supercharged (about 260hp), 195/50 R15x7 Federal 595 rs-pro 200tw As a first semi slick i have tried, on a track day, they showed a lot better then a regular summer tire. They liked lower pressure, at the rear ive ran them at 1.9 bar at the end... I have really abused them, ive had a lot of oversteer and power drifted out of pretty much every corner exit at the end, even drifted several laps when the rain fell and they showed really consistent and have barely any wear... for a comparison, same track, less laps, hankook c52 slick tire took a beating and worse a whole lot, 1/3 was worn or even more. Regular nexen summer tire and toyo t1r were done for after one track day. Lap time with rs-pro was 3 sec worse then with HK C52, altho ive had too narrow rim for that c52 tire... Good dry grip, at the wet track they were good too, but i havent tried aquaplaning... car felt really predictable as those tires have really stiff and thick sidewall. At that price, i doubt they can be beat... however i havent tried other brands yet such as nankang ns2r... Noise is fine imo , as a daily and occasional track day its a great tire imo. Best of all, it seems to last long.

Writing about the Rotalla RU01 S Pace given 80% (225-45-17-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 5000 spirited miles
It was cheapest tires of that size in my coutry. Usually I don't buy chinese tires, but this was for my weekends car. And I was impressed of them! They balanced ok, grips good in dry and wet. Only disadvantages was that they stinked first month and they were noisy at first, but became quieter after few tousends km. But it's not those things in which you should look when buing cheapest tires. Diven about 5000-10000km this summer, I think they will last at least 2-3 summers more.
I can't understand why spend 4-5 times more for famous brands or buy old, restored, repaired, damadged used tires for the same price? Nowadays China makes phones better than western countries, so why they can't make a good tire?

Driving on a combination of roads for 2000 spirited miles
RWD BMW E46 - improved traction over summer tires in snow and ice on a notoriously poor snow handling car. However day to day on dry and damp roads tires have unexpectedly lost traction on the rear under moderate acceleration and recently under heavy braking tires locked up far sooner than summer tires which were progressive and extremely grippy (temperature range -4 to 7 degrees C). It's the law to put snow tires on where I am but can't help thinking I'd have been safer not changing for these tires. Won't buy again, will use the Dunlops I had before.

Very noisy tires. In wet they are dangerous and very poor performance. My BMW 330ci flashed all the time DSC light.
