What is the Life of MPSS?

[f80NJ17]

I have MPSS on my F80
With 19k miles on it
My dealership said the current wear on them is 7/10

I am midway of my lease that will end on feb,2020. I have a set of Blizzak for the winter. So I have like 12+ months left with summer tires on.

I was thinking of putting MPSS 4S asap so I will be able to use them and not give the car back with fresh tires.
Also what is the value of used MPSS with like 20k on them.
What you guys think.

Used MPSS with 20k miles, aren't worth much. If you gave them away it would cost $100+ to mount and balance the set.

True

How the hell did you get 19k on MPSS? You must be driving like a grandma? Both sets I've had were totally gone by 14-15k and I'm not an aggressive driver.

Exactly something is not right here , no way u can have 19k miles and still have 7/10 left, mine wore out after 16k miles and I am not that of an aggressive driver .At the most u can get 20k out of MPSS

I had winter for 4 months so probably 3k there
So the MPSS have 15K miles on them

Not saying that, maybe u switched tires or something, at 19k it should need a new set as they are high performance tires and wear out quick

[Aaaaaaaaa]

I for one was hoping his wear was typical

I replaced the MPSSs on my 2015 M4 @ 18K with MP4S. If I recall, they had 3/32 left so they needed it - I usually replace at 4/32. I suspect your dealer meant 7/32, not 7/10 because 70% of tread left at 15K miles would be highly unusual. Just get a tire depth gauge and check yourself. I can't imagine a single set of tires lasting the entire lease, so you'll need to replace but don't replace too soon such that you'll need to do it again right before the end of the lease.

Also, aside from driving style, road materials also matter to tire life.

What'd you thinkof the MP4S comingfrom theMPSS?

[aerostar]

I still had tread left at 28k on my M235i.

Depends how you drive them.

I thought they were quieter although in fairness, new tires always seem quieter. But after using MPSS in a couple of cars I feel like I have some memory of what they sound like new and thought the MP4S were quieter vs new MPSS. I don't track the car but definitely felt the MP4S equalled or exceeded the MPSS in every way for daily driving on dry and wet roads. They didn't change my life or anything but they were great tires. I only put about 7K miles on them though before the lease ended.

My new car has Conti's. I don't hate them. However, in other cars that came with Conti's they seems to degrade performance and tread faster over time than Michelin's. We'll see how these go.

MPSS was rated for 30K miles if I'm not mistaken. Just changed over to MPS4S and had 15K on current MPSS. Had plenty of life left. I suspect roads have a lot to do with it too.

Only 15k if you have staggered setup and can't rotate.

[Ian1973]

I can tell you buying the standard PSS's give you substantially more mileage over the "star" versions. I didn't get much more than 15k if that from the OE set. Went with the generic versions and didn't burn them off before trading it in, which was at least 15k and had a good bit of life left. I'm only guessing at the latter's mileage as I don't remember.

Mine lasted about 8 months

My stock tires lasted 19k miles easily, and that includes 4 track days. I had my car aligned to the dead center of the tow spec every spring and was extremely anal about my tire pressures. Poor alignments(including the one your car left the factory with) is what kills tires.

Not to derail this but, im also due for change, who do you guys have
changing your tires over/balancing...etc?

I have had tire stores scratch my wheels on other cars before and im paranoid.
Go to dealer?

My Bmw Dealer has a special where I go.
$1100 installed

Not sure if that is a good price. I am due for my change in probably sept/oct

My BMW dealer said that special is going on year round.

I got 25k miles out of a set of CSC5P and the same with my PS4S, are the MPSS poor for wear?

[cbertels]

I got almost 30k on the button. I did have very slight threads showing on the inside rears I didn't notice soon enough. Just went 265/295 so time to see what these will do. Adding DPs and BM3 May shorten their life I suspect.
