BMW i3 Tyres

The BMW i3 is an electric five-door compact hatchback that is designed to accommodate urban or daily commuter needs. It also has the option of a petrol range extender. BMW i3 tyres are designed for driving on wet roads of varying conditions found in the UK. They provide comfort and low road noise. BMW i3 is also very efficient due to low rolling resistance.

Due to variations in production year, model, trim, engine, factory wheels, and electric versions, there are i3 specific variations in which tyres are fitted. Due to these variations, all BMW i3 models will require a vehicle-specific check. The required size and load index can be found on the side wall of the tyres, or of course the handbook or registration. A matching specification for the BMW i3 can help provide good braking, riding comfort, and stability.

BMW i3 owners can use Tyres.co.uk to provide a comparison of available tyres (within legal constraints of the UK) by brand, price, and performance (including wet rating, noise level, and overall efficiency) and book a local fitting. BMW i3 owners can then select and install tyres that best accommodate their driving style and daily needs.

Very trustable tyres that give you confidence and perform greatly, especially in very wet conditions.

Tyre review for Continental Eco Contact 6 215/55R16
5.00/5
I have always had a great experience with these tyres. They always give me around a 30,000 mile lifespan so I always stay loyal to these tyres.

Lillie Barnes
Tyre review for Continental Eco Contact 6 225/50R17
3.00/5
The tyres had responsiveness and good grip, however, with the price paid, the longevity of 10 months, is not great.

I am glad I bought the tyres. They provide really good value for the performance offered.

Tyre review for Nankang Econex NA-1 175/80R14
5.00/5
Due to the reasonable price and load capacity, I fitted them on a twin-axle caravan. I can't comment on durability just yet, but so far, so good.

I am considering replacing them, even though it will be expensive, that's how bad I feel. It is just inaccurate. Forum users mentioned that my car would handle a lot better with this make and model, but that is just not true.

Regardless of the weather, they seem to do quite well.

I purchased these tyres for my Ifor Williams trailer, and although I've only done about 200 miles with them, they have been good so far.

Excellent. Quality item.
Davey G.
Tyre review for Yokohama BluEarth ES32 225/45R17
4.00/5
These tyres grip well in wet and dry conditions due to using quite a soft rubber mix. They are significantly quieter than my last set. Although they do tend to wear out a little quicker because of the soft compound, I think the lifespan is still reasonable considering the price. I would say they are worth the money.

Compared to my old tyres, they function and are more quiet.

Buying BMW i3 Tyres: FAQ

For BMW i3s with 19-inch wheels, Tyres.co.uk has the Bridgestone Ecopia EP500 and Nankang ICE-1 in 155/70 R19 84Q. If you want a summer tyre, go with the Ecopia. If you want a winter tyre, go with the ICE-1, since it is 3PMSF marked; other BMW i3 wheels have different front and rear fitments.

The size of BMW i3 tyres, along with the optimal air pressure, can be located on the BMW i3 tyre pressure placard located on the driver’s side rear door. This requires you to open the driver’s side door. The size is listed on the sidewall of the tyre, while the placard and the vehicle handbook provide the optimal specification.

All versions of BMW i3 are rear wheel drive, so there is no need to purchase same brand and model of tyres for all 4 wheels. Tyres can be purchased and fitted by the axle. The UK recommends fitting new tyres to the rear axle, and it is possible to retain the front and rear differences in specifications.
