Find Tyres for 2018-present BMW 8 Series (G14)
Common factory fitments and replacement guidance for the 2018-present BMW 8 Series.
About this generation
This generation of the 8 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.
BMW fits run-flat tyres on many 8 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.
Chassis code: G14. Use the chassis code to confirm you have the right generation when ordering tyres.

Frequently asked questions
Quick answers about UK tyre fitment, MOT rules and seasonal options.
What does the chassis code G14 mean for tyre choice?
The G14 chassis code identifies this specific generation of the BMW 8 Series. Tyre fitment guides and parts catalogues use the chassis code to match correct sizes, load indices and speed ratings — useful when ordering online.
How long should tyres last on the 2018-present BMW 8 Series?
Typical UK tread life on the BMW 8 Series is around 20,000-40,000 miles depending on tyre brand, road conditions and driving style. Heavier trims tend to wear faster.
What wet grip should I look for on the BMW 8 Series?
For UK driving conditions, prioritise an EU tyre label wet-grip rating of A or B. Wet grip directly affects braking distance — the gap between A and E ratings can be more than a car length at 50 mph.
Are all-season tyres suitable for the BMW 8 Series?
All-season tyres carrying the 3PMSF snowflake symbol are a sensible choice for UK BMW 8 Series drivers who don't want to swap between summer and winter sets. Confirm the size and load rating match your OEM spec.
What speed rating is required for the 2018-present BMW 8 Series?
Performance variants of the BMW 8 Series typically require a Y-rated (300 km/h) or W-rated (270 km/h) tyre. Match or exceed the original speed rating shown on your sidewall — fitting a lower-rated tyre can affect handling and may be illegal on certain models.
