My wheels and tires for winter

Polar_Bimmer · 11-20-2011, 11:20 AM

Finally, I bought the kit recommended and sold by BMW for my xDrive 28i

Wheels = BMW style 305 (17")
Tires = Pirelli Winter 240 Sottozero Serie II RFT (225/60R17, Run Flat)

Price of all: $ 2995,00 + txs !

Oh, and my winter mats = WeatherTech FloorLiner™ DigitalFit®

Those wheels look a lot like the sport package 18s

You're right, they look like a lot of my summer wheels; BMW style 308 (18")

(Summer tires = Pirelli Cinturato P7 RFT, 245/50R18)

I really like the 305s. They're at little chunkier than the 308s.

Does anyone know if you can get the 308s in winter setup from BMW or is it a case of buying alloys and tyres separately?

Any views?

Cheers

I was only given 3 options from BMW for wheel and tyre sets:

307 18s RFT
305 17s RFT
Standard non RFT 17s (not sure on style code)

I got the 308s for my winter shoes. Ordered from the dealer.

I have the 18" 308s for my winters, they were from the dealer (had been "take-offs" from another X3). One good thing about the 308s, IMO they are easier to clean than the 369Ms.
