I've been using these tyres in the UK for a month now on my BMW X5 40D xDrive (with 315/35 R21 rears) and they are truly excellent. Have no experience on snow/ice yet, but on my cold, wet rural roads they are superlative - sure-footed, very economical and quiet. Highly recommended

These were fitted to the rear of my BMW X5 40d m sport and they have today been replaced after covering 27,000 miles yes you have read that right. A brilliant tyre with excellent wear rate on a heavy SUV and although mainly motorway I dont drive like a grandad either. These are also run flat.

Fitted these as a cheap option for my 2018 BMW X5 40d..... so bloody uncomfortable as the garage cannot balance them no matter how hard they try! Constant body vibrations even at low speed. My previous Goodyear tyres no vibrations, I did read previous X5 reviews so thought I'd give them a go....oh, guess you get what you pay for.

Worst tires I have ever purchased. The original Continental tires went almost 37,000 miles while these only managed 10,000.

These are fitted to a BMW X5 F15 40D M Sport on the fronts and have covered 22,000 miles so far and are on 5mm and have been wearing evenly. Now for a 2.5 tonne SUV that is bloody impressive. I am thinking these will last 30,000 miles and so far no complaints. Dry and Wet handling Excellent, Comfort good for Run Flat, and wear rate is amazing for Conti's as they usually wear quite fast. Brilliant tyre

Surprised at the quality of these cheap tires. Bought other cheap tires for other cars and generally you get what you pay for but these are good but they don't last long

Have 285 on rear of X5 255 on front. I am getting a shudder when accelerating. Was to bmw and thought maybe transfer case then egr valve. All testing fine. They are now saying tyres sending wrong info to transfer case and if I change tyres this will be sorted. Time will tell.

I put these on my x5 as a much cheaper option to the pirelli’s they replaced…half to price for 275/315 offsets. Would I put them on my m4? Probably not, but for any sport suv they are just fine. To expect these to perform the same as something twice the price is unrealistic. They doing the job I need them for and they look great. I’m not racing my x5 but they honestly don’t feel bad at higher speeds. I’d consider them again.

Fantastic tyre. I have had these on since new and have just gone past 15k kilometers. In terms of brands I have run a variety of Pirelli, Michelin and others on various SUV's in the past and these are the best all rounder I've had. Plenty of wear currently left on them and I will be buying another set when the time comes.
