Hi,
It's my first post, welcome all

I am looking for tires for Bimmer, 19 inch rims M-package. What all season tires do you recommend? I do not live in a mountainous area, in winter there sporadic snow, maybe a total of 3/4 weeks. Freezing temperatures are more common in the cold season than snow.

it is easier if you list some tires that are available to you in your area, since tire brands and models available in your country may not be available in countries of other members of the forum and vice versa.

For Europe, the recommendations for 'all season' tyres with snowflake/mountain symbol (which means they can be driven on roads where they mandate 'winter tyres only') tend to be:

• Michelin Cross-Climate
• Bridgestone WeatherControl
• Goodyear Vector 4-Season
• Continental All-Season Contact
• Vredestein Quatrac Pro
• Hankoon Kinergy 4S2
• Falken EuroAllSeason AS2

I use Cross-Climates (better in cold/dry/snow) on one car, and Bridgestone WeatherControl (better in cold/wet) on another.

As for why, Jon from TyreReviews can tell you...

One the car with Cross-Climates, I switch to summer tyres in April. But they are a bit 'soft', so will slide a little if driving hard...or if I'm doing a couple of laps of the Nurburgring they will squeal and slide on every corner

On the car with Bridgestone WeatherControl, they're on all year round as it's the car that does 20-30,000 miles a year, and I just want it to be ready to go, no matter the conditions.

Both have been fine on the German autobahn at 100mph/160kph+, and the UK motorway network cruising at 80mph/130kph for 2-3 hours.

Many people recommend Cross-Climates but I don't see information about summer driving experience. Thanks for your opinion
