Anybody with 21inch with All Season tires

[anon1000]

Anybody on 21s and using all season tires? Looks like you could square 295 setup on Conti AWS06s.

Does the square setup look off and will the 295 even sit nicely on the rear wheel or look too skinny?

I am looking at the Vorsteiner VFF103 Wheels and seems like they only come in 21s for the X5.

21" all season tires is like the unicorn of the tire world...
that's the only thing holding me back from upgrading to 21"...

Conti AWS06s are available on 295/35-21s,

Did you ever put those Contis all season on your 21s?

Im looking for an all season setup for Style 599 21" wheels.

If anyone can help, it would be greatly helpful.

BimmerTy is running a set of all season 21" tires. I don't remember the exact brand but remember it being a lesser known, Indonesian-manufactured tire. Maybe he can chime in.

sure there are 21" all seasons but to get them in the right sizes that match the staggered wheels most ppl are running is the tricky part..

So for square setup guys - I just wanted to say that 295mm on front will clear wheel well and won't rub. We had couple members use 295mm on front tires.
So Conti06 could work for square setup. However, you would probably need aftermarket wheels as 599 is staggered if I'm not mistaken. It might work on 599 too, but I'm not sure what's the front rim width for 599? If it can take 295mm tire - then it can work.

BimmerTy is running them in the factory 612M sizes - 285/35/21 and 325/30/21.

You are correct sir! I think they're great for the $ and with all the rain we've gotten I've put them to the test for wet traction. I would give them a 7 out of 10 for wet. Dry is probably a solid 8 but then again I really haven't pushed them too hard in the corners... Curious about snow traction - will keep you guys updated. Road noise is definitely higher then the 19" RFT Goodyear's that came on the X5 initially.

The Accelera's have the feel of a UHP Summer tire but don't quite give the confidence in cornering that MPSS's do. Again, I really haven't been able to test them full out, just taken some exit ramps pretty damn fast. They're absolutely an upgrade from my square 19" RFT setup previously. But then again, that could just be the new staggered stance. Still, from my first month of driving on them, I think they're great for the money on a daily driver. I'll post a review after we get through winter and see how they're wearing in ~5,000 miles.

Still trying to find all seasons that aren't these acceleras as I rather not chance it. Do they exist? I'm assuming not?
