I was doing some research and found that 225/ 55 / 19 and 245/ 50 / 19 have the same diameter.
You should be able to fit a 225 tire on a 7.5" rim. Please someone, correct me if I'm wrong. |

For example, if you have 275/40 R20 you might be able to look at: 255/45R20, 265/40R20, 285/40R20, 295/35R20 All of these will affect your speedo by less than 1MPH at 60MPH. I’d suggest checking with your installer though, rather than just taking my word for it |

I decided to go for 235/50R19, it's only 1% off from 245/50R19 and way cheaper. |

I found another 20" wheel combo from BMW with matte black 695s. It's a 245/45/20 square with Pirelli winters.

Try giving your dealer the part number and see if they can order it.

Not yet still not happy about the lack of the M Steering wheel. What did you decide for the winter tires? 18" or 19"? Did you choose the standard 21" wheels?

Where did you find winter tires in that size? Are they runflats?

There's over a half an inch difference in diameters between the 255/40/21 Scorpion Winter (29.1") and the 275/35/21 Sottozero 3 (28.5").

I will ask my specialty tire shop what they think as well about the tires mentioned above. |

I'd let them measure the x3 for a free set of 19" winter tires. LOL. Last edited by arciga18; 11-13-2017 at 02:48 PM.. |

https://tiresize.com/comparison/ I’d be more concerned about the look, they’re almost a full inch smaller in diameter and the tires may look noticeably small. Have you looked at maybe 235/50? Those will be closer, should still fit the bead, and narrower tires are better for snow anyway. |
