Giti Tire secures OE fitment on new MINI

The tyre will carry the * symbol on the sidewall, meaning it has been approved by the BMW Group for use on their vehicles with modifications to match very precise specifications as set by the manufacturer.

Aimed primarily at compact and family cars, crossover vehicles and small SUVs, the core characteristics of the GitiSynergyH2 are safety without worry, energy efficiency and precise control.

The tyre was designed and engineered at Giti Tire’s European Research & Development Centre in Hannover, Germany with testing at the company’s MIRA facility in the UK as well as key locations in Germany and Spain.

Nicolas Kluson, Key Account Manager Europe OE for Giti Tire, said: “We have been working closely with the BMW Group to prove the quality of our tyres, production and logistics capabilities, so to be able to announce our first OE fitment on the MINI is a moment of great satisfaction for the whole Giti family.

“The MINI is a hugely iconic car, but more importantly this is another OE fitment with a premium vehicle manufacturer that shows Giti can meet the highest requirements in terms of tyre performance and expected mileage.”
