I bought a 2018 M240i and will need to replace tires soon. Has anyone purchased Continental Extreme Contact XL tires? They are performance tires, but 50k mile warranty vs 30 for the Michelins. Are there any recommended tires with at least 50k mile warranty that ride smooth?

Welcome to the Forum

My brother inlaw runs Continental Extreme on his 540d xDrive Touring I don't think he has ever got close to 50k but that is possibly his driving style 🤣

He has used the Continental Extreme on two cars now he likes them for their consistent grip in varied conditions across Europe

50k miles on a M240i, definitely driving style. Not exactly what your looking for but......

I have changed from factory fit Michelin's (rears last 25k) to Goodyear Asymmetric 6's. These were mainly chosen due to the spring and damper set up I have (also changed from stock). I've not had them on long, but they are definitely a more compliant ride on UK roads. Doubt they will get anywhere near 50k miles though

With my AMG's 10k to 15k for the rears was fairly normal one of my sons said any more and your driving like Miss Daisy's Chauffeur

      Rough idle problem

      Looking for some help. 2010 116i M sport with the 2.0na engine. When cold, car ticks over perfectly. After about 15 mins of driving when idling you can feel it getting a little bit rough. Nothing too bad, but the longer you idle the worse it gets. No EML. When running car runs perfectly not a flicker. Today left it idling for 10mins after I felt it and then revs started to fluctuate but still no eml. OBD scanner can’t pick anything up. Turned it off and back on and was still rough but only a little bit like when it just starts. Anyone had anything similar or can point me in a direction of where I should start looking?
