BMW 5 Series Tyres
The BMW 5 Series comes as an executive saloon or Touring model with generations of BMWs whereby they have been designed to accommodate all tri-purpose motorway, town and long-distance driving. The BMW 5 Series tyres should maintain comfort and control of road noise with efficient rolling resistance. These features improve its long-distance driving capabilities and everyday user comfort, while retaining its handling abilities.
Due to the range of variants, sizes change with generations, body styles, trims and engines, available factory wheels etc. For the BMW 5 Series, owners should refer to the tyre sidewalls, the owner’s manual, or even the vehicles registration to determine VRM approved sizes. Load index and speed rating should also be added considerations when correcting the vehicles tyre specification to assist with handling, comfort, and safety.
Tyres.co.uk allows BMW 5 Series owners to select tyres that they can purchase directly and have fitted in garage of their choosing. The option to perform an online tyre checker shows specifications that are suited for the vehicles they own. This helps eliminate the confusion of vast options.
Michelin Primacy 4
Tyre review for Michelin Primacy 4 225/40R18
I have no issues with the tyres; they are quiet and give me a sense of safety on the road.
Flynn C.
Tyre review for Michelin Primacy 4 225/50R17
No problems at all.

Tyre review for Michelin Primacy 4 225/50R17
Steering is more direct and has better grip, while stopping is also good.
Bonnie-Rose Eathan
Tyre review for Michelin Primacy 4 195/55R16
Better traction of these tyres gives them better stopping distance. Previous tyres, of the same brand, had more than 2mm of tread, yet their stopping distance was clearly worse.
Willoughby Geoffrey
Tyre review for Michelin Primacy 4 235/60R18
They perform well in all weather conditions, and they in particular excel in rainy weather.

Tyre review for Goodyear Eagle F1 (Asymmetric 3) 225/45R17
They are performing very well.

Tyre review for Goodyear Eagle F1 (Asymmetric 3) 225/40R19
I have been fitting these tyres to my Jag XF for some time and they have proven themselves. One night, on an unlit country lane with dipped headlights and doing over 50 mph, a cow appeared out of nowhere and was standing right in front of me! There was no time to react, so I swerved the wheel all the way to the right to dodge it, and then to the left to stay on my side. The car remained perfectly under control all the way through and the cow and my passengers remained unharmed!

With the Dunlop tyres recommended by Jaguar, these tyres perform much better on my car.

Goodyear Excellence
Tyre review for Goodyear Excellence 275/35R20
Even in hot weather, I see no signs of wear on these tyres, so I trust their grip and comfort. It's like getting ready for a wedding, you wouldn't want to ruin a nice suit with a pair of old shoes.
Aminata Emily-Mae
Tyre review for Goodyear Excellence 275/35R20
I needed only one tyre, and it is performing well.
Nico R.
Tyre review for Goodyear Excellence 235/65R17
Honestly, I would say they do pretty well in all conditions. My biggest problem is how the car seems to drift without me steering, and the front steering goes completely out of my control. This is much worse on A and B roads, although strangely doesn't happen on motorways. I did also get a four-wheel alignment done when the tyres were changed, so I doubt that is the reason. Most of the time I would imagine you would have a decently high level of confidence in a performance tyre, so its really making me wonder if the same set is going to cause problems again. Is it possible this is related to the tyres looking unbalanced when viewed from the front or the back of the car?

Tyre review for Goodyear Excellence 235/65R17
Doing well, but they're close to the end of their life expectancy.
Althea Legge
Tyre review for Goodyear Excellence 275/35R20
These tyres are doing quite well and I should get around 40,000 miles from them.

Tyre review for Michelin Pilot Sport 4 205/55R16
Wonderful, I always put Michelin on my Porsche as they are the best tyres for it, plus they have the Porsche 'N' rating.
Eirinn Kenyon
Tyre review for Michelin Pilot Sport 4 205/55R16
These tyres are excellent! They offer great grip on dry roads and sufficient traction on wet roads, so you always feel safe.

As an example, Pirelli P Zero and Bridgestone Turanza 6 245/45 R19 102Y XL are examples of some tyre options available at Tyres.co.uk for BMW 5 Series Saloon’s 19” Square-Fitment on the current 5 Series. Due to other possible wheel trims and staggered set-ups, plus run flat systems, it is always better to check the registration.
The placard for tyre size and pressure for the BMW 5 Series is located on the user side door pillar and is visible when the driver’s door is open. It indicates the specifications for the wheels and tyres that are authorised, and the size is also displayed on the sidewall of the tyre. Since there are options for wheels and multiple sets of staggered fitments, check the placard and the reference book.
For the BMW 5 Series rear-wheel-drive, it is not a legal requirement to replace all four tyres, however, for the BMW 5 Series with xDrive it is a requirement to replace all four tyres. It is a requirement to only fit approval staggered fitments. For non-staggered setups, it is recommended to fit a new matched pair to the rear axle in line with the UK tyre safety guidance.
