What psi for Conti DWS06's?
I have a 2015 X5 XDrive35i with M sports package (if that makes any difference) and wanted to know what you guys inflate your Continentals to? I have the 20" staggered setup. After a visit to the dealer, they inflated to ~35ish psi all the way around. On a separate visit to a Discount Tire, they did 35ish in the front, and 47ish or so in the rears? Inconsistencies here.
What is normal and what do you guys recommend? Thanks in advance, Snes |

Dush posted the pages from the BMW manual in post 4 of this thread:
https://f15.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1514740 Or just check your printed manual. There are a bunch of different wheel/tire/vehicle/speed combinations shown so be sure you pick the right setup for your Situation.

Just look at the sticker in the driver door frame, tells you recommended PSI. My 2017 m sport is 36 front 41 rear for the 20” staggered wheels.
You may want to increase the rear a few PSI if you notice any flat spotting. Wider wheels are more prone to flat spotting especially with non-RFT tires like yours. I have my rear at 43PSI and I am running the Michelin N-spec non-RFT tires. P.S. my dealer always sets the tires at 35 PSI during service. Ticks me off every time and I even said something to my SA one time that they weren’t even inflating to recommended pressures. |

My door sticker says 35 psi front and 39 psi rear cold tires. There are other pressures in the manual for heavy load, driving over 100 mph, etc.
