The speedo will be off, showing lower 6.7% than actual speed. Surprised dealer would suggest the option.

Wheelwells clearance:
Will fill out the wheelwell by extra 22 mm. Make sure that you have enough room under the fender. If not, consider lower profiles or smaller rims.

SPEEDOMETER:
When speedometer reads 60mph (96.6km/h) actual speed will be 64mph (103km/h): 6.7% faster.

If you are in Toronto, lots of tire guys around, I use an indept. You need BMW if you bought Tire/wheel warranty pkg.

The X1 tyres, 225/50/17 will mean that the actual speed is 6.7 % lower than what the speedometer reads.
