Tyre sizes for the BMW i3
Many BMW cars — including some i3 variants — were fitted with run-flat tyres from new. Replacement tyres should typically match the original (run-flat or non-run-flat) specification.
As an electric vehicle, the BMW i3 benefits from EV-specific tyres engineered for extra weight, instant torque and lower rolling resistance — typically preserving range.
Tyre sizes for the BMW i3 vary by year, trim, engine and wheel size — the right size for your specific car depends on which wheels were fitted at order.

Frequently asked questions
Quick answers about UK tyre fitment, MOT rules and seasonal options.
What's the difference between summer and winter tyres for a BMW i3?
Winter tyres use a different rubber compound that stays flexible below 7°C, plus deeper sipes for snow and slush grip. For UK BMW i3 drivers in colder regions, dedicated winters or 3PMSF all-seasons can be worthwhile.
How long has the BMW i3 used the same tyre size?
The BMW i3 listed here is one production generation, so the OEM tyre fitments are consistent across the model's run. Trim and wheel option still affect the exact size on your specific car.
Can I mix tyre brands on a BMW i3?
It's safer to fit matching tyres in pairs (axle-by-axle) on a BMW i3. Mixing brands or different tread patterns across an axle can affect handling balance — particularly in wet conditions.
Are all-season tyres a good choice on a BMW i3?
For UK drivers, all-season tyres with the 3PMSF symbol can be a sensible compromise on the BMW i3 — particularly if you do mixed mileage and don't want to swap between summer and winter sets twice a year.
Is wheel alignment important after fitting new i3 tyres?
Yes — a wheel alignment check after fitting new tyres on the BMW i3 preserves tread life and handling. Most UK fitters offer a quick alignment check; major adjustments (camber/caster) require a four-wheel laser machine.
