469M Summer & 451 Winter
I have a 2018 X5 Xdrive35i with the M sport appearance package running the 20" 469M wheels with the runflats. I'm thinking about purchasing some 20" 451 takeoffs, staggered, with the Conti DWS06 tires for this winter. The 451's should swap out without any issues, correct?

You could also buy a set of take off winter wheels and tires from ebay for around $1600. I'm not sure what you are paying for the tires though. I personally prefer to swap wheels all together and bought a new set last year around that price range, mind you they were 19's but also brand new with stickers...

I feel that for the price the 451's are hard to pass up. I just wanted to make sure that they will fit similar to the 469's. I want to make sure the offset is the same or close so that they look right with the M Sport Appearance Pkg.

Offsets are exactly the same. I run 451 with DWS06 in winter and they are great.

If you are getting a second set of rims, put snows on them instead of all seasons. And consider a square set-up instead of staggered for winter driving as wider is not better in the snow. Otherwise I agree with Maverik259 and just put all seasons on your 469s. Is a second set of rims with just all seasons worth it for a twice yearly drive to CO?

Narrower tires and square set-up are better in new/unplowed/deep snow.
I run 19" Hakkas on 467 wheels as I need proper snow tires in the winter.

I bought a set of used 19" X5 rims for $700 and put Blizzaks on them. In all kinds of snow and ice they are fairly incredible. I can drive thru anything. I just spent a week in Mammoth with a few feet of snow over a few days and I was driving all over the place with zero worries.

I lucked out last year, found a set of 449s with Blizzaks & TPMS on them. The guy sold his wife's X5 and had this set sitting in his garage. Got them for $1k.
