And I kind of lean towards off road and snow utility. Though I admit that I drive a minor % of this.
But seriously what am I missing, performance wise?
And what is the alternative to runflats? Put a compact flat in the rear sump?
I'm new to the BMW x5- I love it so far, but i l know there is a lot more potential...
Not even sure what I am asking...
Perhaps: what is good performing tire with winter capability? And is it worth it to replace the Bridgestone Duelers?
Just looking for thoughts/ideas/experiences- i know this is a 'loaded' question.
