Snow Tire Question: Size and Handling
I have a USA issue 2011 X3 35i with the 18 inch wheels. My local tire place has one tire for the 245/50/18's but has many options for going down one size to:
225 / 60 / 17's... My question is how much will that affect my day to day dry road handling?
I live in New England and drive mostly on plowed roads, but there are occasions where I travel to a ski mountain or drive on packed, snowy roads.
Will the taller tire make my X3 handle much differently then the stock 18's?
Thanks in advance.
