Of course, if you're at the track I recommend you spend a bit and get some track ready tire. In over a year and a half of ownership I can tell you that not once have I needed a track spec tire, and I DRIVE.
With that said, I'd rather have new Lexani's on my ride every 8 months than one set of some $2K++ fan boy tires.

I'm leaning towards this logic as well. The hardest time I drive my X5M on 22's is for the week that I'm gone to Bimmerfest, the other 6 months I'm doing DD duties back and forth to work in Seattle's short summer. Once the rain returns, then I throw the 20's back on. |
Exactly.
I had to do a 500 mile round trip drive twice in the past month. Guess what I did? I slapped on my stocks with nice juicy Pirellis and I drove. When I got back home I slapped on the 22's. It takes me 20 minutes, literally, to swap tires. I'm like a one man pit crew. It's all about having the right tools.
For DD going to work and back and the occasional red light blast, I'm sure any tire will do.
