Driving on
a combination of roads for 3000
easy going miles
These tires came on my 2024 BMW I7 xDrive60 that I ordered with 19” wheels. This is an all electric drive car for those who may not know. Honestly, on ribbon smooth, relatively newly paved roads, the tires are nearly silent. However, on a recent 1200 mile road trip to Northern California, when worn pavement surfaces were encountered, at highway speeds of 60 to 75mph, the tires absolutely ROARED, making the interior of this very luxurious sedan VERY uncomfortable. I’m not talking about hitting a “rough patch,” I’m talking about areas where the noise was constant for MILES on end! If I encountered such roads on a daily basis, I would immediately replace these tires with another brand. However, where I live in South Orange County, I rarely encounter such road surfaces. I believe that these tires were not fully vetted by BMW and should not have been chosen as standard equipment for this marvelously quiet sedan. BMW should have Pirelli or Continental produce a “bespoke,” ultra premium tire for this very special, ultra luxurious sedan of theirs.
