About the BMW 2 Series

First introduced in 2014, the BMW 2 Series is a relatively new addition to the BMW range but has quickly become one of the brand's most popular models. Offering an impressive balance between everyday functionality and sports-car performance, it appeals to a wide range of drivers. It's highly rated by the experts, too, being named Coupe of the Year 2022 by Auto Express.

The Series 2 is best known for its deceptive size, contemporary styling and trademark performance. It's up there with some of the best compact executive cars on the market, including the Audi A3 and Mercedes CLA. And for users working their way up the BMW ladder, the Series 2 is a fantastic car if you've outgrown the Series 1 but aren't quite yet ready for the bigger Series 3.

Maximising all aspects of performance and safety in your car depends on reliable and quality rubber. At Just Tyres, we stock some of the leading brands to give you the best choice of tyres for your BMW 2 Series.

BMW 2 Series tyre FAQs

Does a BMW 2 Series have run-flat tyres?

Most BMW cars come with run-flat tyres as standard but that doesn't mean your 2 Series is guaranteed to have them. Previous owners could have replaced the tyres and some older models didn't leave the factory with run-flats.

If you're not sure which type is currently fitted, you can usually tell by looking at the sidewall of your tyres. ROF, EMT and ZP/ZPS markings are indicators of run-flat tyres, each used by different brands.

What tyres are needed for a BMW 2 Series M Sport?

The exact tyre specifications needed for your BMW 2 Series may differ depending on which model you have. The M Sport line certainly needs a premium tyre to match the performance output of these vehicles, so you'd be best choosing a trusted brand such as Michelin or Continental.

For the tyre size you need, check the sidewall of your current tyres to see what is already fitted and use this to confirm the suggestions made by our 'find your tyres' tool.

Do I need BMW-approved tyres?

You don't need to choose original equipment (OEM) or manufacturer-approved tyres for your BMW 2 Series, but they are worth the investment if you're looking to maintain optimal performance.

Many manufacturers, including Michelin and Goodyear, work closely with BMW to engineer tyres that are perfectly crafted for specific models. This often results in better handling, greater stopping power and extended tyre longevity.
