Anyone run a 275-40-20 winter setup on the stock 469M?
Waiting for my X5 to arrive and I have a set of 1 year old Continental winter tires (275-40-20) from my 2013 Range Rover Sport. I know I could go buy a set of 20" square wheels but I plan to put 22" summer wheels/tires on the car next year so I don't want to have 3 set of wheels/tires. I prefer to just use the 469M as my winter setup.
I know the front is perfect size, but I am worried if the rear will be too stretched? Has anyone done or seen pics of it done on an X5? I hate the stretched look, so if its too stretched. I wont do it. TIA

I'm debating the SAME thing right now. Pros for keeping it 275 all around is that tires are much cheaper because you have a much wider selection. Its also better for traction.
Cons is that 275 on the back wheel will look stretched. I found a pic online once of a E70 with this tire size on the back 20" wheel but can't seem to find it again. It didn't look horrible but it didn't look good either. Alan

Taran ran/just sold his VMR square setup with 275s. Check his build thread for pics. Didn't look overly stretched IIRC.

Sorry, thought you were just looking for better pics of a square 275 setup, not 469Ms specifically. IMO, it'll look fine!

I agree
My original plan was to buy 2 rear tires and keep my 2 fronts but unfortunately, conti doesn't make a 315 or even 305 or 295 rear tire.
