Probably due to the nice people at BMW giving us umpteen different yet strangely unique hubs and offsets; tyres for which appear rarer than hens' teeth to acquire.

275/40/20 would fit the rears on your car.

I got an OEM set of 19s for my X6 40d for winter use (I hope they will still fit my upcoming X6 M50d) and these have bigger rear wheels yet same size rubber all round which enables the car to get better grip in snow/ice - that would be my only reservation with opting for wider winter tyres at the back.

Anyone bought ebay sets and then messed around with hub rings and/or spacers to get decent set up for winter on the M car?

Good luck with your quest!
