What brand of tires does the BMW X5 use?

BMW X5 models are equipped with Dunlop tires, with a size of 255/50R18, while the premium version uses 255/50R19. Additional information: Tire usage details: 1. Based on the structure of the tire body, car tires can be divided into pneumatic tires and solid tires. Pneumatic tires are the most widely used. According to the tire pressure, pneumatic tires can be categorized into high-pressure tires, low-pressure tires, and ultra-low-pressure tires. 2. Most vehicles generally use low-pressure tires. Pneumatic tires can also be divided into tubed and tubeless types based on their structural composition. 3. Passenger cars commonly use tubeless tires. Depending on the arrangement of the internal cord layers and buffer layers, tires can be further classified into radial tires and bias tires.
The BMW X5 I drive was bought two years ago, and it came with Michelin tires, which feel quite durable and are suitable for both city and highway driving. However, tire brands can really be a matter of luck. BMW often collaborates with brands like Pirelli, Continental, or Goodyear, especially if your X5 is a sports version or a cold-weather edition, which might favor brands with better grip. Tire sizes also vary, with the factory usually fitting 19 or 20 inches, which affects brand choices. I recommend checking tire pressure and wear every six months. Old tires can leak or blow out, which is unsafe. When replacing tires, it's best to check the vehicle manual or ask the dealership for recommendations—don’t just go for the cheapest option.
