Nope, so far theirs only one brand of tire made for these wheels, and if you have the 20" rims like I do they don't even offer winter tires in that size, so I just ordered the winter tire and wheel Package from BMW for 1400

Now mind you I now have over 11000 miles and still have ok tread on my tires. So results may vary, But if I'd have to guess I'd say around maybe 15k to 18k they will need replacing.

These are the 20" with sport tires.
