I see. “At Port.”

At any rate, exciting! Do you have your winter tire solution yet?

Maybe FC should buy your X5 for his new commute. Bam! Two problems solved.

Waiting to hear from my independent shop about availability of Nokians in the right size. If that doesn't work, will probably go with the BMW 21" winter package (contis or pirellis).

Why not a tirerack package? I agree nokians > most tires, but why bother with bmw oem for a second set? Those are also rft's, something I usually want to get away from, even in snow tires.

I'll look into a tirerack package, but we end up having the winter tires on for a decent chunk of the year (trips to VT, etc.) so I'd like an OEM look if possible.

Pick wheels that look like what you want you want them to look like. OE or otherwise. Tirerack has damn near everything.

They actually don't have that many options in the right size. My mechanic got me a decent deal on a BMW package with Pirellis, so going with that.

:lol: I think it's one of the prettiest SUV's ever made, but not the type of car I'm looking for.

Weird on the first part. Good on the second part.

Then I read the thread title correctly.
I still read it incorrectly each and every time.

What size did you get for the winter tires - 20” or 21”? Can’t remember if I asked you before. Does the X7 M50 use same size brakes as X5 M50?
