Std equipment all seasons

Hello,

I am getting a 2013 S Clubman. It comes with P195/55R16 all season runflat tires. Does anyone know what brand and model tire these will be?

Thanks.

Continental ContiProContact SSR. See Tire Rack and enter your car for a tire search and you should see these. They are OK, quiet, good in rain, passable in snow. Ride is a little rough being a runflat and depending on how you drive you will get 20 - 30k miles out of them. Not all runflats ride rough; my snow are really nice.

Photos coming soon. I'm supposed to have it this week. It's coming (maybe just arrived) from another dealership. There are photos the original dealer took but they are bad quality. Green Park color combo with black wheels -- kind of a unique combination. I would not have gone with the black wheels but I think they will be OK. I told my wife it will make the car look badass.

I think MINI uses several different model of tires. I think I had Dunlop SP Sport 01 DSST the last few times. The speed rating depends on the model you have, Cooper-S should have V rated ones.

Edit: oops, those are performance ones, not all season.

It came with the Continentals. They seem good. I will not use them in the winter; will probably get a dedicated set of snow tires on separate rims.

I can recommend the Bridgestone LM 60s for snows.
