When Should Tires Be Replaced?
The two key indicators that your BMW 2 Series needs new tires are time and mileage. With most drivers covering 10,000 to 15,000 miles per year, you’ll likely reach your tires’ mileage limit before their age becomes a concern.
However, once your BMW’s tires pass the five-year mark, replacement should be considered regardless of mileage. The sophisticated compound of rubber, kevlar, and specialized chemicals that protect your tires against UV exposure, temperature fluctuations, and road hazards naturally degrades over time, reducing their effectiveness and potentially compromising your sport compact’s performance and handling characteristics.

BMW 2 Series Tire FAQ
Will Lionhart tires fit my BMW 2 Series?
Yes, Lionhart offers multiple tire lines that fit all BMW 2 Series generations (F22/F23, F44, G42, and F74/F78). Our tires meet or exceed OEM specifications for performance, load rating, and speed rating. Simply match your factory tire size to find the right Lionhart replacement option.
Can I use the same tire size on all four wheels if my BMW came with staggered fitment?
While some BMW 2 Series models come with staggered setups (different front/rear sizes), you can often switch to a square setup with proper sizing. However, always verify clearance and consult your vehicle's specifications before making changes. Lionhart offers sizes for both staggered and square configurations.
How do I know which tire size is right for my specific BMW 2 Series model?
Check your driver's door jamb sticker, owner's manual, or the sidewall of your current tires for the factory size. Your specific size depends on your model year, trim level, and wheel package. The tables above show all factory sizes for each BMW 2 Series generation.
What's the difference between R-rated and ZR-rated tires for my BMW?
ZR indicates a speed rating above 149 mph, while R is the standard radial construction designation. Most BMW 2 Series sport and performance models require ZR-rated tires to handle higher speeds safely. Lionhart offers both rating types depending on your vehicle's requirements.
Do Lionhart tires come with a warranty?
Yes, Lionhart tires include manufacturer warranties that vary by tire line. Coverage typically includes treadwear warranties, road hazard protection, and workmanship guarantees. Visit the specific product page on lionharttires.com for detailed warranty information for each tire model.
