Hi peeps

Father has a BMW 318iS K reg & needs to buy a set of tyres.

Is there any particular tyre that works well with this car ?

Thanks.
Andy.

I recon remolds because they a cheap and last for yrs

The Michelin Sports are very good and grippy, but wear out in no time, the Conti's are harder wearing but noisy, the best compromise was some Dunlops (2000s I think) good grip and lasted for over 30000 miles on my 330d

I would recommend either Michelin Pilot Sports or Bridgestone S03's, both seem to work well with the 3 series

Well its not like this car is going to need ZR tyres so any branded ones wil do the trick. Avoid P-Zeros on RWD as I found them crap on mine, Iam running Bridgestone SO-3s and love them.

For a 318 get Conti's or Pilots, car doesnt need expensive traction tyres.

My point exactly Tom - the Dunlop 2000s are c£100/corner, the conti's are cheaper, but the Dunnies are beter VFM.

W-rated are what you want for a 318is.
