Fitment comes from each tyre's manufactured size list, and the sizes are the ones drivers reported when they reviewed. Check the size, load index and speed rating on your own doorplate before buying - a size a previous owner ran is not always the size your car left the factory on.

Michelin CrossClimate 3 Sport 245-40-19 BMW 635D 1,000 miles September 19, 2026

I run staggered 19" Michelin CC3 Sports on my BMW E63 635d and they're superb tyres

Excellent wet & dry grip; even in the recent heatwaves we've had here in Lancashire; their grip hasn't faded in the heat, and then in the recent cooler weather and very wet weather, their grip has been excellent

Smooth, quiet, not 'squishy' like some all-season tyres can be and suit the car. They have no issues with the nearly 600NM of torque the car puts through the rear wheels

Would highly recommend them

Avon ZX7 245-40-19- BMW 635D 3,000 miles September 30, 2024
Having to replace 2 of these on front of my car due to them cracking and perishing, Avon say it's ok but I'm not so sure and don't want to risk an accident so changing them asap

I run winter and summer wheels and tyres setup so these go into dark storage from 1st November until 1st March so not had a rough life, appx 1500mls a year as I'm retired and do little mileage.

About 6mm left on each tyre and fit for the trash.

Searching the internet shows it's common with this brand so I can't personally recommend them.

Wish I'd bought Hankook or Kumho instead.

Bridgestone Potenza RE050A Run Flat 225-45-17- BMW 635D 2,000 miles March 24, 2015
Awful, awful, awful.

Incredibly noisy, unbearably harsh ride, twitchy over bumps.

How BMW think these were ever acceptable is beyond belief.

Honestly, stone wheels would be better, because that's what they feel like.

Nexen N Fera SU1 245-45-18-W BMW 635D 5,000 miles March 24, 2015
Seems a really good tyre, plus very reasonable price (£58 each for 245/45/ZR 18!). Used to replace the dreaded RFTs, they're very comfortable, grippy wet or dry (and the car has a ton of torque) and much quieter than the noise label would suggest.

I bought them because the reviews were generally very solid indeed and that's how I would describe this tyre; solid value and definitely one to buy again.
