Bridgestone Potenza Sport Evo

Given the current delays, delivery was prompt, and really quick. The tyres arrived in great condition and the fitting process went smoothly. I really appreciate the quick service.

Like I said before, when it comes to heavy snow, they are great for winter conditions.

Bridgestone Potenza S001

The new tyres give excellent road grip. I was pleasantly surprised with the other rear-wheel drive handling in the wet. They are also really quiet and deal with potholes well, as you can't avoid every one. I would definitely buy them again and strongly recommend them.

I would recommend these tyres to anyone with a small BMW. They have great grip in all weather conditions. I have noticed a significant reduction in stopping distance as well as a decrease in cabin noise from the tyres.

245/40 R17 Dimensions Explained

The 245/40 R17 is a low-profile size that would have been fitted to a BMW Z3 M Roadster and an M Coupe in a staggered set. 245 is the width in mm. 40 is an aspect ratio that produces a sidewall measuring 98mm. Since the sidewall is shorter it flexes less which improves handling. R17 means the tyre has a radial construction and is made to fit a 17-inch wheel. The overall diameter of this tyre is 628mm. Tyres.co.uk sells this size and has runflat and XL variants.

Part of the sizeValueWhat it means
Section width 245 The width of the tyre across the tread, measured in millimetres.
Profile (aspect ratio) 40 Sidewall height as a percentage of the width - here, 40% of 245 mm (about 98 mm).
Construction R Radial construction, which is what nearly all road tyres use.
Rim diameter 17 The wheel diameter the tyre fits, measured in inches.
