Tyre choice on BMW PCP

[anonymous-user]

I have a 1 series on PCP (BMW Select) that needs 2 new rear tyres.

I cannot see anything in my documentation regarding which brand of tyres I am allowed/supposed to fit so wondered if I need to replace like with like (Bridgestone Potenza) or am I limited to certain brands?

Just wondered if anyone knows before I call the dealer.

Thanks!

PCP is a personal contract purchase, you own the car (in theory) you don't rent it. PCH is where you rent the car for a period of time and this would be more of an issue when you hand the car back at the end of your hire term.

It's therefore your choice what you put on it with PCP. The only difference would be if you choose to hand the car back after paying 50% of your PCP ie 24 months in on a 48 month deal, the hand back would take into consideration wear, tear etc.

If it is PCH I would put like for like on it, makes it an easier hand back.

If PCP, you don't say which 1 you have ? and depends if you want run flats or not.
