About this generation
BMW fits run-flat tyres on many M5 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.
Performance variants of the BMW M5 need W- or Y-rated tyres with a higher-grip compound. Replacements should match or exceed the original speed rating shown on the sidewall.
Chassis code: F10. 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 F10 mean for tyre choice?
The F10 chassis code identifies this specific generation of the BMW M5. Tyre fitment guides and parts catalogues use the chassis code to match correct sizes, load indices and speed ratings — useful when ordering online.
What do star/OEM markings mean on BMW M5 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.
What's different about the 2011-2017 M5 compared with other generations?
This is the 2011-2017 generation of the BMW M5. Earlier and later generations use different platforms, wheel sizes and tyre fitments, so always match your specific year to the correct generation page.
Are premium-brand tyres worth it on a BMW M5?
On a BMW M5, premium tyre brands (Michelin, Continental, Bridgestone, Pirelli, Goodyear) typically deliver longer tread life, better wet grip and quieter rolling. The cost difference is usually recouped over the tyre's life.
Are all-season tyres suitable for the BMW M5?
All-season tyres carrying the 3PMSF snowflake symbol are a sensible choice for UK BMW M5 drivers who don't want to swap between summer and winter sets. Confirm the size and load rating match your OEM spec.
