Few weeks ago, I saw an X5M with the OEM 21" rims and Pirelli Scorpion ICE (Not winter, seems like Pirelli has two Versions of winter tires = Pirelli Scorpion Winter & Pirelli Scorpion ICE).
Maybe an alternative for those who don't want to invest in winter rims... Hope it helps. |

Hi all -
I am switching from a 2014 M5 to a 2016 X5M in large part because I can't get up my driveway even with snow tires. I've read all of these threads and would prefer to get the OEM winter set. Amy one have a lead on where I can get one - my dealer has not been able to locate a set. As a second choice, any suggestions? Seems ridiculous that BMW NA doesn't have enough of these sets on hand in the winter. TIA |

My dealer has suggested the 491 winter wheel set up as an option.
Will come with 275/315 Pirelli runflat Scorpion snow and ice tires. We'll see how they fit. |

I picked by my X5M yesterday with the 491 winter wheel package installed. Although I am not a big fan of black wheels, these look pretty good. I really like the concavity of the rear wheels.
Very cold with some ice on the roads. So far so good but won't get a chance to test it until this weekend when we supposed to get 3-5 in of snow. Already clear that it is a world of difference compared to my M5 with snow tires. Last edited by WCH; 01-19-2016 at 10:36 AM.. |

Noticeably stiffer but as to be expected with a runflat. Regardless, the truck inspires so much confidence as you drive, makes you feel as if its just bulletproof. Granted you still have to be cognizant of potholes as it is still a 21 but the truck is now as usable as ever for the winter. Happy thus far.

I haven't been able to find Pirellis winters in 21" stock sizes anywhere in the US. If you have a lead, it would be greatly appreciated. |

Anyone went from 21 to 20 and noticed the difference in weight ?
