BMW E39 M5 Tyres

I first purchased these about 4 years ago on my RX8 after reading some good reviews on the owners website and I was astonished at how good they we're, completely transformed the car. Since then I have always purchased these tyres. I now own a BMW M5 e39 and have fitted these tyres all round and again I noticed an amazing transformation.

I am a big car fan and have experimented with many different tyres over the years and I can honestly say these are BY FAR the best tyres money can buy regardless of price.

I recommend these to anyone who asks which tyre to buy and have always brilliant reports back.

Just remember they cover the tyre in a protective coating so the first couple of hundred miles are very slippery..

This is my first set of Vredisteins 295/35/18 back and 255/35/18 front...I've had about every named brand tire out there and I have to say these will not be beat.

Well it's hard form me to say how they wear because I've only driven around 1000 miles on them. I have to say they are fantastic performance tires. My e39 puts out about 410-415hp with the upgrades, so if I hammer her down it puts the tires to the test. I'm a pretty spirited driver and enjoy putting my stressing my tires to the limit...and that I have. Higher speed cornering on the on/off ramps are amazing. I took a friend out one night and he said if he had taken the curves at the speeds I took them, his jeep would have turned right over. When I take them to to limit that are amazingly balanced and when I force them to cut loose they are easy to get back into control. Pure 0-60 times have improved dramatically, although I still have a tough time in first gear with spinouts...lol but not near as bad as my michi's

For the price no other tire in the world competes with these as far as I'm concerned. Grade A/A+

Impossible to fault for the price.

Well what can I say these tyres are truly astonishing! Bought two for the rear used off of eBay and loved them, so when the time came I got them all round. (did cost over ?1k, but hey!) They're fantastic on the road, heat up pretty quick and they have transformed the car into a cross between a big cruiser and a hot hatch! It really is unbelievable what these tyres can and will do.
You must warm them progressively to get the best life span out of them, skidding or spinning the wheels when they're cold really takes a lot of tread off! I have done 5,000 hard miles on these beauties including a Cadwell park track day and I still have about 3mm of tread left.
As others have said in the rain these are still very usable even on a big car like the M5. Very progressive and controllable if you know what you're doing.
I will definitely buy these again, no question.

When I got my 330d I was dissappointed to find that the P-Zeros that it came with (and that I replaced the first time round) only lasted about 8000 miles. I've used F1 GSD-3s ever since and on average they last about 15000 miles. Although dry grip is good the real selling point is wet grip and aquaplaning resistance which is incredible.

The cold-weather/slush/snow performance is extremely poor however as would be expected. I have a set of Nokian WRs on cheap steel rims which I change over to in the winter - they're brilliant in the Alps or even at home on the odd snowy/slushy day we get here - and you save your summer tyres and wheels in the process.

Hopeless grip for first few miles so take great care. Once bedded in though the grip is great, wet and dry. However, fuel consumption takes a big hit (around 7.5-10% worse than with Pilot Sport IIs on motorway journeys!) and they tram-line terribly making the car a bucking bronco over white lines and poor surfaces.

I think for the price these tyres are superb, I have them on my M5 which has 400bhp at the back and the car has never let go yet.I need new ones after around 12000 miles due to wear in the centre(over inflation perhaps) but i am defo getting these again.

Staggeringly good, all things considered. Whilst you cannot take liberties, these tyres allowed a 400hp rear drive car to get about on all roads and conditions during the recent snowy spell. In the cold and heavy rain too, they have far better bite than the summer tyres (PS2s on 18" rims). In the dry, up around 5-7 deg C, I still prefer the PS2, and the 830Ps feel quite floaty in comparison, but when the temperature drops to nearer zero deg C, regardless of whether it is dry or wet, or snowy and icy, the 830Ps win big-time. I have no other winter tyre experience to compare them with, but I have no complaints at all about the TS830P.

I bought it based on Mubull's (of autoworld.com.my) recommendation. I will not buy this tire again. There are better tyres for this money.Try the famous Bridgestone Adrenalin or Continental CSC2 or Goodyear F1 or Falken. Perhaps Mubull had some unseen commission in the process? I would be selling this urgently soon.
