437M on F25 X3
Car is lowered on Eibach Pro Kit.
Previous wheelset was the staggered 20” style 311 with Pirelli PZero RFT. Now moved to 19” staggered 437M from an M3 with Firestone Firehawk Indy500 tires. Comfort levels have gone up considerably. Also pretty happy with the overall look. |

OE sized 19s. 245/45/19 and 275/40/19. I did not feel a need to go wider. Previous 20s were the same widths, and while the steering was crisper, I also found ride was crashy, nervous. Indy500 19s much calmer ride, but I do feel a bit of a loss in the immediacy. As far as grip goes, I'm not quite sure if it's an improvement or not. Category-wise I moved down from a "low rated" max performance summer to a higher rated UHP. But Indy500 apparently is incredibly popular due to bang for the buck. |

there is a bit of poke so be prepared for more stone chips / dirt on your panels.
The tires are now broken in as well, and in this incredible heat, are very grippy. |

Can you share if you used the TPMS that was on the 437M (from M3/M4) or a different one. If yes, please share the link. I am looking on going this route as I love the look on your X3.
