You don't get to choose. It's a lottery. I've only heard of Michelin and Pirellis. Popular demand seems to go with Michelin. The side walls aren't protruding and they are spacers friendly.

I could be wrong but I believe the Xdrives come with Michelins and the non-xdrives come with Pirellis.

No, there's no rhyme or reason to it. The Michelin's are generally considered a superior tire, but I wouldn't lose too much sleep over getting the Pirelli's.

Pzero G83 here. A person who got a G83 at the other Austin dealership got Michelin. His car finished production the day before mine! Definitely random.

Hoping for Michelins. Had my CA's manager put in a request to the factory in the "comments" section of my order to ask for Michelins.
Currently awaiting delivery of my M3 Comp xDrive (in GA VPC) with Perellis.

My 6spd came with Contis and FWIW Tire Rack does not show the Michelins as available in the OE 18/19 size. Curious what other MT owners got. Perhaps most are optioning the 19/20s

So I got the black 826M to better hide the size difference. Planning on getting aftermarket wheels, 20" all around at some point. To answer your question, Contis are only offered on the 18/19" sizes. |

Me, too. Also winter tires don't seem to exist for these rims. I'm hoping to survive winter on all season Continentals

I've had two other cars with Pirelli PZero's and avoid them at all costs. I tried my best to tear through the Pirelli PZero's that came on my Cayman S and I couldn't do it. If I loose the tire lottery, I'll immediately have Pilots installed.
