MINI Original Complete Wheels are fitted exclusively with star marked tyres. These tyres have been developed in close collaboration with leading tyre manufacturers (e.g. Continental, Dunlop, Goodyear and Pirelli), and are ideally matched to the vehicle concept of each individual MINI model.
TAILOR-MADE
All MINI Original Wheels and Tyres have been specially developed for maximum safety and perfectly match the style of each specific MINI model.
TESTED
Each tyre has passed stringent testing with up to 50 different quality criteria (the EU Tyre Label demands compliance with only three criteria).
SPORTY
The tyres are perfectly attuned to suspension components and adaptive systems for maximum grip and performance.
SAFE
Tyres with star marking feature high durability, top safety ratings and state-of-the-art run-flat technology.
ECONOMICAL
The systematic use of special materials reduces fuel consumption and lowers noise levels.
Our tyres resist deformation, so they last longer and you use less fuel. Deformation means that energy requirements for the car to move are greater, which increases fuel consumption. MINI Star Marked Tyres are created with reduced rolling resistance, which reduces deformation by means of special materials on the running surfaces and sides.
The run-flat technology makes it unnecessary to change a wheel right away. It allows the driver to continue their way to the nearest workshop, for example. Additional elastic inserts made of highly hear-resistand rubber mixtures in the sidewalls prevent the tyre from overheating and cathing fire when it has lost pressure. Even with no pressure at all, the run-flat tyre enalbes a loaded vehicle to continue to travel for a distance of approximately 80km at 80km/h.

To achieve the mark of a MINI star, tyres are subject to detailed quality and safety tests, even more rigorous than those for the EU tyre label.

Winter tyres give you a far better performance and ensure even greater safety. Don’t forget to fit them when winter comes. Here’s why:
Winter tyres are created to cope with slippery winter conditions and require a far shorter braking distance. In snow or icy road conditions, braking distances can be shortened by up to 50%. (Braking distance will vary depending on the weather, tyre conditions and the speed at which you’re travelling.)
Winter tyres are far more durable in cold temperatures. The tread won’t wear down as quickly as summer tyres.
Winter tyres have special treads called ‘sipes’, which means they grip the roads better in wet and snowy conditions, as well as allowing them to get rid of excess water.
