All-Season tires for 22"

547 Views 7 Replies 6 Participants Last post by  electric_journey
What are people using for all-season tires on their 22 inch wheels? There does not seem to be any EV-tuned all-season tires in OEM size. Looking for something relatively quiet (as my M60 is a luxury car first) with acceptable handling. Should I expect a range hit from the OEM Pirelli summers? They're EV-tuned but they're high performance summer tires which are supposed to be sticky (and thus less rolling resistance). Not sure how that nets out.

I put the continental ExtremeContact DWS06's on my M60 before delivery. Fantastic tires. Not EV rated, but I don't think it matters all that much.

FWIW, Continental is now claiming that the DWS06+'s are EV-rated. Regardless, they get rave reviews from many people across multiple automobile forums for different types of vehicles.

How much did you pay for them, if I may ask?

317 each plus 200 for mounting. I had them sent directly to the dealer from TireRack.com

I took off the Pirelli PZero's and put on Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4's in stock sizes on my M60. The AS4's are listed as "EV Compatible" on Michelin's website (low rolling resistance).

Ride quality improved considerably but noise was the same. No real difference in handling I could feel. I've had the PZero's on other cars and they get LOUD after about 5000km, and the ride is harsh.

The PZero's with the BMW star stamping buldge out more to give you a bit of rim protecetion. The Michelin's are pretty flush to the rim.

Have you noticed any decrease in range?

@tuffcalc I've done 5k miles, and my factory fitted 22inch P-zero Elects don't make any more noise than when I first got the car.
