X5M Tire/Rim Fitment

Just wondering if the following rims/tires will fit my 2012 X5M? I have an opportunity to acquire a set a reasonable price. But not sure if the will fit and what sort of rims they are. Thanks.


5 x 120 bolt pattern
22" x 10" Sevizia Rims
295/30/ZR22 tires

Anyone please?

Also can I fit a rear 315 (or bigger) tire on these rims?

It is your car and you can do whatever you'd like to it, but I believe that is a bargain rim company (like $200 new) and I would be very concerned putting a heavy SUV like an X5M on those wheels.

You will need to get the bore diameter and offset to know if they will fit. Also, are these wheels designed for a SUV (I don't know just wanted to make sure that it is something you had looked into.

Since you have to use roughly the same rolling diameter front and rear on the X5. You tire options are pretty limited. Pirelli make two tires in the proper sizes, however I would strongly recommend using the same tire size tire front and back if you have the same size wheel. The only staggered tire setup available is 295/30/22 front and 335/25/22 rear. There is no way a 335/25 tire is going to fit on a 10" wheel. An 11.5" wheel is about as narrow as you can go with that tire.

Thanks for your reply.

The rims were on a regular X5 before from what it appears but I am not sure if they will fit a X5M as well.

So from what you're saying on these rims 295 should be the widest I go? And to not stagger the tires as the rims are 10 all around.

Didn't realize it was a cheap rim company as their site has these rims on super cars etc. That makes me double think about the whole thing not sure if i would like to go that route now.

Also any opinion on Zito rims? There is one available with a staggered set up you mentioned with 335 at the back but more expensive than the other set.

That is a 1.4% diameter difference between the two sizes. Is this acceptable within xDrive tolerances?
