Any opinions from northern people on the Bridgestone Blizzak LM-001 RFT included here?
The price and wheels are perfect...just not sure about the tires. https://www.getbmwparts.com/oem-part...19-36110003058 I'm in VT and need serious snows. They'll be on the car about 6 months every year. Was planning on Nokian R3 SUV tires. |

I just got a set of these with Blizak LM001:
https://www.tirerack.com/wheels/Whee...8;autoModClar= I thought they looked similar to the factory 20s and they didn't break the bank. They look pretty nice in person.

bmw stock rims are nice but I don't like the looks of them enough to keep them on as a summer set up, so I'm just swapping out the rubber on them and storing my pirellis during winter. those 3.5k mile tires will have brand new rims next summer!
my vote is for blizzaks from what I've seen on youtube. I also saw on tire rack they suggested the pirelli scorpions...never had a true winter tire before. anyone running the pirelli winter tires?? |

Based on all the charts/tables I've seen they say that 255 for a 9.5 is actually in the "idea" range.

Do you guys have any experience with the 1% recommended difference for the xdrive system? I want to go with 235/55/19 on all 4 wheels and use the 245:50/19 setting on the I drive tire menu. The difference will be 1.85% do you think it's too much of a difference and will mess up my xdrive?

Usually, when I see reference to the 1% max variation in rolling circumference, it is in relation to other tires on the vehicle, as when replacing one tire. Whether one can safely run all 4 tires of a greater circumference is a different issue. |

If anything, yours will be off (but not by a significant amount).

I'm in the process of locking down on the following at a local shop.
Pirelli Sottozero 3 RFTs (245/50/19) RTX Graz Satin Black Wheels Seems like a pretty nice combo based on what I've read. Any thoughts? |

Website says : "Compared to your existing wheel, this new wheel will have an inner rim which is 15.7mm closer to the suspension strut. The outer rim will poke out 9.7mm more than before." Someone know if that's ok? |
