I'll need tires for my wife's X3..I want to go go something wider rather than narrower...mostly for looks.
curious to know if you ever switched tires for your wifes X3?

i have a 2011 X3 with 245/55 r17 runflats. I want to switch to a regular tire but there arent any in that size. Tirerack is telling me that 235/60 r17 is guranteed to work for my vehicle. The diameter difference is 1.75%.

Will it be safe to make the switch? will the suspension or ABS get out of whack if i switch to the different size?
