BMW 520d Tourer Tyre Review Highlights

Writing about the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2 given 91% (245-40-18-W)
Driving on a combination of roads for 500 average miles
Changed to the Asymmetric 2's after a year of suffering the awful ride of the Goodyear run flats supplied as standard with this car. Very impressed so far- the car feels much more comfortable with very similar levels of grip.

Its funny how we all jusge the same tyre differently. But I have had a good experience with these tyres.
I am 10 miles shy of 25,000 miles and my two back tyres have about 3mm and my two front 4+. I have never had wear like this before, just brilliant.
The ride can be a little noisy and it is a hard ride, but i put that down to the type of tyre and the fact the car has a hard suspension. The grip has alway been sound. I'm hoping to get 30k out of them, but i do a lot of country track driving and motorway too. The roads are not what they used to be!

For a BMW 5 Series Tourer manufacture warranty tyre, l am very disappointed in its wear performance. The tread gauge limit indicator is approx 2.8-3.0mm and before l have got to this, probably around the 3.3mm mark l have had 3 tyres now in a row tear along the inside wall where it meets the road tread. Steel belt holds out for about 7 miles and then it tears all the way around. From external examination and experience with this tyre although it was the 3rd l still could not see warning signs before it tore. On the up, as a run flat l have done 90MPH on a full flat with no loss of grip / security. I will be moving over to Yokahama or Michillen in future.
