Winter Wheel Options
It's that time of year again...what are people doing for winter rims and tires?
I have the 20-inch wheels, and wanted to retain that size. Should I go with the staggered setup, or drop down to 275 all around? Ideally, I wanted the Nokians, but those aren't available for the larger rear tire size. |

I bought a set of like new take off 18" style 446 wheels from a BMW dealer via eBay for cheap a few months back. Have a set of Nokian Hakkapeliitta R2 SUV runflats in size 255/55/18 waiting to be mounted.
I have style 451 20 inch wheels for summer wheels so when the 18s go on in a few weeks the car is going to look kind of funny.

My X5 is somewhere between SC and Bremehaven. I ordered another set of 469Ms with Scorpions which will be mounted when I take delivery in a month or so.

My first BMW, an X6 50i is in the production lineup in South Carolina, it will be coming to Wisconsin in about 4-5 weeks. I too purchased another set of 469 20" rims, staggered with Pirelli Ice and snow RFT. From what I've read here I have confidence that they will do the job in the white stuff.

I'm in Stuttgart. They have some pretty good wheel/tire packages at the local dealer here. Cheers.

Now I'm looking for a roof rack and box. Appreciate your steer earlier. I'll probably go with a Thule set up. |
