BMW 1 series M pack Tyre Review Highlights

Writing about the Pirelli Cinturato All Season SF3 given 75% (195-55-16-)
Driving on mostly country roads for 1000 easy going miles
I am back with a winter review,
The tire behaves just fine until around -5 degrees on dry/wet/ asphalt and are good on mud or a little fresh snow.

On old frozen snow however they will get you moving, but you don't feel that the tire grips in any way, these tires will allow you to move slowly in a mostly straight direction. Basically you give a little gas and hope that you move somewhere, every second on snow will sound nerve-wracking - still the traction control will rarely intervene. If there is ice the car will just slide randomly when braking but the tires allow you to always stop. If you keep the speed steady and slow it maintains direction without issues even in tight corners, when you lose control the car just slides and the only thing you can do is to stop it.

My car is RWD and I wouldn't really dare to go up a large hill with snow/ice with these tires unless absolutely necessary. The car slides/spins in place whenever one has to go up on an icy/snowy ramp from a full stop. They will get you up the hill if you insist, but if you don't have a lot of space around you will slide left-right and hit the edge of the road.

At around -10 degrees or lower it starts to feel too hard and slides as soon as you hit some gravel with ice/snow on a half cleaned road, brake a little harder and you slide like a sleigh. I don't know if I would want to test these without snow chains/socks at -20 degrees or lower and fully snow covered roads because the lower the temperature the lower the feel of grip in the steering wheel.

TLDR: I won't say it's a bad tire because it will allow you to move and stop just fine if you have space, otherwise the car felt like a sleigh going sideways more than I would have liked. I managed to get up and down on 20-30% ramps with snow, however in very tight spaces I was very lucky that I didn't hit the car because the car slid sideways a lot when braking. You have to also always pay attention when joining a main road from a snowy road, the rear tires will slide sideways.

It was an average feeling tyre on all aspects. Non-RFT version is much more acceptable than the RFT version. Definitely wouldn't recommend getting the RFT one. Replacing these with Conti PC6's was a good idea, both mediocre comfort and noise level bu Conti has much more grip and road feedback for the same price.

Writing about the Bridgestone Turanza T005 given 37% (225-40-17-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 4000 average miles
Got those as stock on BMW 1 series. Summer tire performs worse than all season I have. Spinning on wet, dry. Handling - none, stopping - weak. Car is unstable even on reasonable acceleration on wet surface. Just some dust on a turn, and go sideways. On speed over 120 - car goes sideways. On turns on a highway car slips from trajectory. Catch some dust in a turn, even reasonable low speed, you lose control of the car as grip is gone. List goes on and on. Worst tire you can imagine. Even low fuel consumption doesn’t worth all the negative points. Plastic tires, no grip and as a result low fuel, but really doesn’t worth it whatsoever. Never ever buy it. I drove 6k kilometres on those, want to get rid of it. Don’t want even to resell it, because those tires are unsafe.
