Tire inflation pressure
Information for your safety
The factory-approved Run Flat tires are 
matched to the vehicle and have been 
selected to provide optimum safety and 
driving comfort.
It is not merely the tire's service life, but 
also driving comfort and – above all else – 
driving safety that depend on the condition 
of the tires and the maintenance of the 
specified tire pressure.
Incorrect tire inflation pressure is a fre-
quent cause of tire damage. It also signifi-
cantly influences the roadholding ability of 
your BMW.
Check tire inflation pressures regu-
larly – at least every two weeks and 
before every extended journey. If this is not 
done, incorrect tire pressures can cause 
driving instability or tire damage, ultimately 
resulting in accidents.

Checking tire pressures
The specified inflation pressures are pro-
vided on a sticker attached to the B-pillar 
and are visible when the driver's door is 
open.
All pressures are specified in the units usu-
ally used in your country – psi and kilopas-
cal – for tires at ambient temperatures; also 
refer to the following tire inflation pressure 
table.
Reinitialize the Flat Tire Monitor after 
correcting the tire inflation pressure.

Comply with tire approval 
specifications
The inflation pressures in the table apply to 
BMW-approved tire sizes and tire brands. 
Your BMW center will be glad to supply this 
information. Other tire brands may require 
a higher inflation pressure, which may 
impair handling and vehicle response.
