Tire Recommendations for '08 328i Sport

RDHarb · 10-09-2019, 04:02 PM

Purchasing a 2008 328i with Sport Package, so it has staggered 17s. Not wanting run flats. My main concern is tread life which I'm already at a disadvantage with staggered wheels. I've got six drivers in the family and my insurance card is two pages long. Trying not to go broke buying tires. This car will be a daily driver/commuter. We live in Texas, so we don't really have much of a winter. Mainly looking for good wearing tires that won't break the bank.

Thanks!

Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 are very good bang for the buck if still wanting to maintain performance. I ended up going with Pilot Sport only because its better rated for rain/cold temp due to area i live in, or else the Indy500 were my next best choice for budget "branded" tire. iam sure you can find much cheaper non performance tires if price is the only factor.
