For decades Mini has chosen Goodyear tyres as original equipment (OE) and homologated tyres for their vehicles – from the original Mini to the Countryman, the vehicles and the tyres they drive on have stood the test of time and wear. Goodyear also supports the Mini Challenge Championship - providing innovative new racing technology that filters into developing tyres for road-going Mini models.
Original Equipment tyres deliver optimised vehicle performance and ride, and as the driver’s only contact with the road surface, are a crucial component of the vehicle. Goodyear's Mini OE tyres are fine-tuned to each vehicle chassis and built bespoke to the marque, model, type and specification of the vehicle. With over 120 years of refining and enhancing premium tyres and over 600 OE contracts with leading car manufacturers, you can trust our bespoke built tyres to retain your vehicle’s performance.
When it comes to replacing the tyres on your Mini, choosing a Goodyear tyre is a great fit to maintain the manufacturer recommended drive characteristics and performance of your vehicle. Our tyres have received awards in multiple independent tests and we are a leader in terms of the number of tyre sizes rated "A" in European tyre grades on the market today. Mini has worked closely with Goodyear on the creation and supply of original equipment (OE) and homologated tyres suited to each Mini model.
Electric Vehicle Ready
Lower noise emissions and reduced rolling resistance make the tyre a perfect fit for electric vehicles
Dry Contact Plus Technology
The tyre's contact patch adapts to the driving style and road surface for improved dry performance
Wet Braking Pro Technology
New resin allows the tyre to have more micro-contact with the road which results in improved wet braking
Other tyres can be fitted to your Mini depending on your marque, size, preference and seasonality:
A summer pattern in the Goodyear range with fitment on the Countryman
Designed for all weather performance with fitment for the Cooper
A performance tyre with fitment for the Clubman

All Mini Goodyear Original Equipment tyres are marked on the tyre sidewall with a 'star' mark to show the tyre is manufacturer approved.

Maintaining the correct tyre pressure is crucial in ensuring optimum tyre performance. All aspects of driving and tyre wear can be affected by under or over inflation – therefore it is fundamental to know your vehicle’s tyre pressure and monitor this at regular intervals. By driving with the correct tyre pressure your vehicle’s handling and traction will be optimised in all weather conditions and have a positive impact on braking distance and fuel efficiency.
The correct tyre pressure for your Mini vehicle can be found in the vehicle handbook or visible on the inside of the driver’s side door.
For more information on tyre pressures read our guide on what your tyre pressures should be.
Even though you may be a safe and smooth driver, there are times when the unpredictability of other traffic or road surfaces that may require you to break harshly or swerve – pushing the demands on your tyres. By fitting the same construction and pattern to both axels on your car aids equal handling.
Different patterns or brands of tyres can vary in height and the speed they roll due to their individual designs or state of wear. This can affect the performance or mechanics if the tyres are mixed.
Whilst there are no laws in the UK requiring all 4 tyres to be the same pattern, it is recommended to do so to provide equal performance to aid safe driving. If you are planning to drive abroad in your own car, it is worth researching laws of the countries you will be visiting or driving through as some do have laws on mixing tyre patterns.
