Find Tyres for 2023-present BMW 5 Series (G60)
Common factory fitments and replacement guidance for the 2023-present BMW 5 Series.
About this generation
BMW fits run-flat tyres on many 5 Series models, paired with tyre pressure monitoring and no spare wheel. If your car was supplied with run-flats, replacements should typically also be run-flats.
This generation of the 5 Series runs on 19-inch or larger wheels in some trims, which means short-sidewall tyres that handle precisely but are less forgiving on rough UK roads.
Chassis code: G60. Use the chassis code to confirm you have the right generation when ordering tyres.

Original-equipment sizes shown here are typical UK fitments. Sport packs, optional alloy upgrades and dealer accessories can change the size — always confirm before fitting.
Tyre fitment for any BMW 5 Series depends on the wheels and trim ordered from new. The most accurate way to confirm a replacement is to read the size from your existing tyre sidewall.

Frequently asked questions
Quick answers about UK tyre fitment, MOT rules and seasonal options.
Did the 2023-present BMW 5 Series come with run-flat tyres?
Many BMW models in this era were supplied with run-flat tyres from the factory. If your car has tyre pressure monitoring and no spare wheel, replacement tyres should typically also be run-flat. Verify on the existing sidewall — look for "RFT", "ROF", "ZP" or similar markings.
What does the chassis code G60 mean for tyre choice?
The G60 chassis code identifies this specific generation of the BMW 5 Series. Tyre fitment guides and parts catalogues use the chassis code to match correct sizes, load indices and speed ratings — useful when ordering online.
What tyre size does the 2023-present BMW 5 Series use?
Common UK factory fitments for the 2023-present BMW 5 Series include 245/45 R19, 255/45 R19, 275/40 R20, 275/35 R21. The exact size depends on the wheel and trim ordered — always confirm on your tyre sidewall before fitting.
What do star/OEM markings mean on BMW 5 Series tyres?
BMW approves specific tyres for many of its models, marked with a star (BMW), MO (Mercedes), AO (Audi), J (Jaguar) or similar. OEM-marked tyres are tuned for that car's suspension and don't always come from the major brand-name fitter as a stock item — they may need to be ordered.
Can I downsize from larger wheels on my BMW 5 Series?
Some trims of the 5 Series can be downsized to a smaller OEM-approved wheel, which often gives better ride and lower tyre cost. BMW usually publishes approved alternative sizes — check the handbook before changing wheel size.
