X6M Winter 19" setup

Steve Gill · 11-14-2010, 04:48 PM

Folks

I had a X6 3.5d previously, with which I had a set of 255/50/19 on style 257s.

I've just tried the winters on my X6M, and they catch (just!) on the calipers.

Does anyone know a set of 19" rims that clear the calipers that I could swap my 255/50 blizzaks onto?

It's been mentioned a few times on here that only the 298M set from BMW fits on the X6M, otherwise you have to go for a set of 20s.

That setup works really well. Just put mine on and Notice No difference from summer tires.

Got it fitted yesterday - just in time for the first downpour of snow here in Scotland. The car is awesome - surefooted with the Blizzaks and I'm really pleased with the new setup
