BMW X3 Tire Review Highlights
Tires were great when new, love the runflat, tread wore down way earlier than expected 19K

Excellent in fresh snow, hard packed snow/icy roads, and good on dry and wet roads. Very quiet and comfortable.

Compared to the oem pirelli cinturato run flats, these are quieter, more comfortable, and have better grip in the dry and wet.

I recently bought the tires and I can affirm those tires have a very good grip on dry and on wet road. I didn’t try them yet on snowy or icy road.
For now I recommend them, very nice and safe ride.

So far so good. Nice comfort and great wet grip.

Tires have 2000+ klm on wet and dry roads. So far, grip in wet road is quite efficient and tire performance is good. On dry roads their performance is bad to poor, not a good grip, squirm effect is heavy, above 130-140klm/hr you feel the car slipping.
Another serious issue, is that car is pulling left (despite 3 alignment carried out already) especially above 50-60klm/hr. With a speed of 140klm/hr at highway turns, you can follow the turn and wheel is straight.

These tires are pretty amazing. I live in a place with equally wet and hot weather all year round. The price point for these premium brand tires is the first thing that caught my eye. Following good online reviews, I decided to try it out. Dry grip is great on my SUV. Managing corners at relatively higher speeds had no issues. The harder side walls made handling the car stable. Steering and handling is responsive and sharp. Braking wise the tires performed pretty well for the traffic I faced. In the wet weather, I encountered zero aquaplaning situations. The tires performed exactly as what it was rated as. Of course driving in the rain would be more cautious and slower usually, but for me, it was not too much of a difference between wet and dry. The tires felt pretty comfortable, however, I personally prefer stiffer suspensions and tires as my driving style is slightly more aggressive. These tires definitely felt better than the Alenzas I used which were extremely “bouncy”. Hopefully these tires are as durable as stated. If it’s true, I’ll definitely buy again. Road noise wise it was pretty unnoticeable for my car. I guess it’s also dependent on how soundproof one’s car is.
The other tire I was comparing it against with is the Giti P10. Might try that next.

When these tires were fitted to my BMW X3 I could noise the difference straight away. The car was noticeably quieter at motorway speeds and handles lumps and bumps in the road much better. My previous tire to this was a Pirelli P7 Run Flats.
These tires are a much better all rounder. They don’t appear to be manufactured with the minimum tread wear indicators. The Michelins also come with 7mm tread when brand new. I would recommend these for our British climate.

I bought a BMW X3 3.0d , x-drive, mapped. It has the Bridgestone T005 on the back, and they are good, on the front were new Turanza 6 ... I have read all the mixed reviews, and mixed test results on here, but for me, on the front of this car, they are very very good. Grip in all conditions, wet/dry hot/cold ect is very good. very good resistance to aquaplaning too. the most astonishing thing is the wear, I have covered 7,000 miles in them, and they have hardly worn at all, they still look brand new, and only show some wear on the edges of the tires (I'm an 'enthusiastic' driver ;) ) I totally recommend these tires to anyone looking for a good "all rounder" . will defiantly consider again.

Bridgestone Alenza tires are a very dangerous tire to put on a vehicle if you intend to drive in Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba or Northern Ontario in winter/ice . There is absolutely no grip on ice or snow and are hazardous to your safety when attempting to turn and/or stop the vehicle. I DO NOT RECOMMEND this tire for use on any vehicle during a Canadian winter.

Feeling good, though a bit numb. The price for a well rounded, very comfy tire, that grips confident. No insecure feeling at all. But, of course, not for pushing it on the edge... remember, it's a touring tire.
It is BMW OE equipment, I well consider to refit next time.

I have a 2007 BMW E83 over 3,000 miles on my Nokian Ones and live in Seattle, WA. I am incredibly pleased with them.
I’ve read a few reviews about noise but have not had that issue. They are very quiet with one exception, and was right after I bought them. There was stretch of road that had extremely worn pavement, and a large pebbled surface. They were very noisy the first time I drove on that surface but subsequent drives have been quieter, though a bit louder than regular asphalt, which is barely noticeable.
The Nokians replaced the Kelly tires I had on it and they were ok and far louder, though decent 7/10.
The handing has been great in dry and wet even with spirited driving, and am looking forward to seeing how they perform in snow. I also find them very responsive to my input. My previous tires (Kelly) were just ok in that they didn’t feel as firmly planted on the ground, it sounds odd since they of course make contact, but they just felt meh.
My one question is wear, which I won’t be able to determine until the 80 percent wears down. At this time though it looks like they will wear great. If they perform good/great in the snow they would be a definite buy if I had a second car, or need new ones (hopefully after 70,000 miles) and are still available, though it’s likely a newer version will be available by then. I’ll update after I’ve driven in the snow and when the rains starts, which is about now after a very dry summer in Seattle.
