Car wash and x6
Did any of you guys that owns the x6 (with the 315mm width rear tire) had any problems going through the automated carwash???? Will the rear tire fit the car wash tire rail???

I would go measure. Don't risk it. I hand wash so couldn't tell you.

315 will go through easy, my 325 rear goes through just fine...besides there is a lip protector on all tires these days which should protect your rims

Should be OK going through.....but I advise NOT using car washes with brushes...even cloth car wash units have grit, dirt and other things in the brushes which leave scratches on the car.

Glina - you are absolutely correct. All you do is give all the TLC to the next owner for nothing. Save the expenditure and put it towards the next car. A much better philosophy.
