MYLR all season tyres

The pic makes it look scarily vulnerable! However, though my M3 18inch rims don't appear to be quite as prominent they are still the first point of contact with a kerb whatever tyre is fitted to them... so just as likely to be scraped.
Almost looks like they’re stretched doesn’t it, but the are 255 sections!

Maybe it’s the photo angle but that doesn’t look right. No way you should be able to see that much wheel surely?
All 4 are that way, would you expect them to all be off? But agree, that photo angle does exacerbate it. I’ll take another picture but done about 500 miles on them now and no ill effects, so not overly concerned…
If they prepped and installed the tyres all in the same way and didn’t pay attention to it then yes they could all look like that and be seated too deeply.
Edit: it’s normal for CC2’s apparently.
Probably fine since you’ve done 500 miles. Soapy dish water is your friend for checking for slow leaks though.

Stand down. It’s normal (in a weird Tesla way)

Is this tire fit correct, does anyone have pictures of their Michelin cross climate 2?
255/45/R19 1. Is this normal/installed correctly? 2. Will this be a problem (e.g. mud/snow)? 3. Should I get a different size? Purchased the new CC2s for my 22 model Y, but the wheel lip sticks out. Other pictures in TMC or elsewhere seem to show the same thing.

Guess they’re just that bit more stretched than the hankooks. Michelin know best though I guess..
To the guy that asked earlier - you might want those SF2s after allThat’s honking!

The Hankooks have got some seriously deep rim protection which only just covers the rim, i've just fitted some GoodYear Eagle F1 Asymmetric that have rim protection but don't cover it like the Hankooks do, better than the CC2s by the look of it though!
Shame the rims aren't 9" instead of 9 1/2" to avoid the stretch look.

I've just booked these for a set of TSportline 19s I've bought in from the US. It's for a MYP - the OEMs look beautiful but I suspect not very practical. The TSportline 19s are very similar - 255/45/19.

I think these with the new Pirelli all season Scorpion SF2 should work well. Looking at the specs, the Pirellis now seem to be ahead of the CC2 which is already a very good tyre. The Pirellis are XL rated, A rated for economy and also a bit quieter than the CC2 by all accounts. The rim protection is also more pronounced which is handy. They're scarce but I managed to book in at ATS Euromaster in a couple of weeks time. Looking forward to trying them - just over £800 all in.
Living in south England I’d say yes. I have CC2s on a spare set of rims and they have much better traction in lower single digit temps than the Pilots. That way you have optimal tyres all year round for the climate.
Can I just check that the Pirellis fit the 19" rim better than the CC2 appear to please? So the rim isn't left protruding? It looks fine from your picture. I've just ordered a set of the Scorpion 2s for some 19" after-market rims and just want to make sure that I avoid the rim protruding as appears to happen with the CrossClimate 2s. Cheers and thanks in advance.Popped outside to check. 100% says Extra Load on the sidewalls! Honestly really happy with these tires, already put on 120 miles including in the snow in Brighton yesturday, took it slow but got through with no issues! View attachment 884114
Much better than the Michelins, I am still very happy with mine after approximately 6k miles.
The design of the Gemini alloys doesn't help the tyre with rim protection, it has a lip that the aero hubcap fits inside that wouldn't be there on a normal alloy.
The depth of the standard fit Hankook rim protection is approximately 16mm and is only just flush with the lip on the alloy wheel so would not offer much protection from a kerb i think.

Thanks for that. I've actually imported some TSportline 19s and the lip you highlighted certainly isn't there, so I think even with CC2 tyres, we may be OK. Preference is the new Pirellis but certainly the CC2 is an excellent option - finding either at the moment isn't easy!
