Bmw 325i Tires

Here at SimpleTire, we’ve gone through and rounded up the best BMW 325i tires, including all-season, all-weather, winter, and ultra-high-performance (UHP) tires, using SimpleScore. Ready? Let’s dive in for a closer look:

1. Goodyear Assurance MaxLife - Best All-Season tire

We’re going to kick off this list with the Goodyear Assurance MaxLife, an all-season tire that’s designed for year-round traction, crisp performance, and of course the kind of value and quality that drivers have come to associate with Goodyear products. The Assurance MaxLife’s model name is pretty fitting – this is an extremely durable tire that’s designed around Goodyear’s TredLife system, including strong internal construction and a long-wearing rubber formulation. Goodyear covers the Assurance MaxLife with a best-in-class 85,000 mile warranty, and that’s enough for us to award it a SimpleScore of 9.9 for longevity. Cornering and braking are direct and confident thanks to a solid center rib that enhances steering response, semi-closed shoulders, an extra-sticky tread compound, and a polyamide reinforcement layer, earning a SimpleScore of 9.5 for handling. There’s also year-round grip with a network of sipes with circumferential grooves, and angled and lateral grooves, all working together to resist hydroplaning and deliver braking, maneuverability, and cornering that are predictable in wet or dry weather, bringing home a SimpleScore of 9.7 for traction.

2. Bridgestone Weatherpeak - Best All-Weather tire

Next up is our all-weather tire for your BMW 325i, the Bridgestone Weatherpeak. If you’ve ever struggled to get through deep snow and slush in the winter, you’ve probably found out the hard way that many all-season tires are just not up to the task. All-weather tires are a new-ish category and are designed similarly to all-season models, but with performance and control that are improved in snow, slush, and ice. In light of that, Bridgestone designed the Weatherpeak’s tread with a dense pattern of sipes, the hair-thin slits that add hundreds of extra biting edges and multiply your chance of getting through snow and slush for you the advantage in traction that you need. Bridgestone’s sipes are an innovative design for the industry; these sipes have a full-depth 3D feature that continues to boost your winter traction as the tire wears down, along with “snow vices” that build friction by retaining snow in the tread for better grip. The Bridgestone Weatherpeak has the Three Peak Mountain Snowflake certification for severe winter service, and testing has shown its braking distances are as much as 30 feet shorter than the competition in winter weather. After taking all that into account, we gave the Bridgestone Weatherpeak a SimpleScore of 9.7 for traction. Steering response and cornering are similarly strong; the Weatherpeak’s SimpleScore of 9.5 for handling comes from its rubber formulation and tread features that highlight road manners, steering response, and cornering ability that are all top-notch. Bridgestone backs the Weatherpeak with a 70,000 mile limited manufacturer tread life warranty, a superb level of warranty coverage that’s enough to inspire a SimpleScore of 9.8 for longevity.

3. Nokian Nordman 9 - Best Winter tire

Nokian is based in Finland (yes, the same parent company as Nokia phones) and specializes in winter tires that are designed for the rigors of a Scandinavian winter. In parts of the country that have winter weather that’s rough enough for snow to stay on the roads for days or weeks at a time, ordinary all-season tires are often not sufficient to get you safely from point A to point B. The Nokian Nordman 9 is a great choice for a high-performance, feature-packed winter tire. The Nordman 9 features a specialized rubber formulation that stays pliable to go on delivering traction in subfreezing weather and a tough, durable Aramid-reinforced sidewall – we give the Nordman 9 SUV a SimpleScore of 9.4 for longevity. Traction is stubborn and confident thanks to a directional tread design with deep grooves, Snow Claws, and sipes that give the tire extra edges to dig into snow and slush. It’s worth noting that even with such great winter traction, the Nokian Nordman 9 is also designed for low rolling resistance, cutting fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. We give the Nokian Nordman 9 a SimpleScore of 9.9 for traction. Roadability, road manners, and cornering are all immediate and precise for a solid 9.0 SimpleScore for handling. You might also be interested in knowing that Nokian designed the Nordman 9 with an eco-friendly rubber compound, with silica, canola oil, and natural rubber components.

4. Continental ExtremeSportContact 02 - Best Ultra-High-Performance tire

The Continental ExtremeSportContact 02 is Continental’s latest UHP tire and is designed for the kind of driver who’s looking for a nice balance of comfort, low road noise, wet or dry traction, and handling. Like all UHP tires, the Continental ExtremeSportContact 02 uses a softer tread compound that will stiffen up and lose traction on colder days. The ExtremeSportContact 02 is designed for warmer weather and should not be used if temperatures are below 45 degrees F. Wide shoulder blocks, a solid center rib, and Continental’s sticky Silane+ tread compound all enhance lateral grip for cornering, steering response, and maneuverability. Handling is direct and commanding without being twitchy, for a SimpleScore of 9.6. With its tread compound, 2-ply polyester casing, steel belts, and polyamide cap layer, Continental stands by the ExtremeSportContact 2 with a 30,000 mile warranty – outstanding when you remember most summer/UHP tires don’t have treadwear coverage at all – and we give this tire a longevity SimpleScore of 8.6. Wet and dry weather grip is tenacious, with circumferential grooves that direct water away from the tire’s contact patch to resist hydroplaning for a traction SimpleScore of 9.8.

While these are the best BMW 325i tires on the market, there are plenty of other tires to consider:

5. Toyo Extensa A/S II - Great All-Season tire

We’re gonna wrap things up with the Toyo Extensa A/S II, a tire that we’ve always thought to be able to punch far above its weight class. Toyo engineered the Extensa A/S II with a silica-rich rubber compound that’s designed for long wear and tenacious wet-weather grip It’s then molded with a system of circumferential grooves, lateral/angled grooves and 3D sipes for the dependable year-round traction you need. With all that in mind, we give the Toyo Extensa A/S II a SimpleScore of 8.7 for traction. Durability is another strong point of this tire; its robust internal construction consists of a polyester casing, two steel belts, and a spiral-wound nylon cap layer underneath that long-wearing tread compound. The symmetrical tread pattern makes cross-rotation simple with this tire, and Toyo backs this tire with a 75,000 mile warranty for a longevity SimpleScore of 7.8. Cornering, steering response, and roadability are all predictable, stable, and progressive with the Extensa A/S II; that symmetric tread pattern and shoulder design mean more rubber in contact with the road, for a SimpleScore of a solid 8.4 for handling.
