Outside Tire Wear X6M
My post from the X5 forumn:
“Just replaced my second set of summers use (All seasons) yesterday on my 2013 X6M…each time had the alignment dealer checked before replacing… which was a waste as - each time nothing was adjusted that may have been the cause of the outside wear.. Only have 76,000 miles….. I run winter 19” for 5 months of the year…I’m also on my second set (brand new) but the first set wore even…. No outside wear. Yesterday I replaced with Nexen N’fera Supreme, two installed for 500 Cdn/368 USD. It was a toss up between those and Nexen Roadian GTX… OEM Continental Conti-SSRs came off… Pirelli Cinturato P7 on the rear. https://nexentirecanada.com/tire-lin...nfera-supreme/ At those prices… I no longer care… They meet all the specs and then some.” |

What's size 19s do you use for the winter? I have to find myself a set
And what size 19 rims? Like 19x8 or 19x9 and do you keep them the same width or also staggered like OEM? Tx

Bilbo, your problem is the Nexen tires - they wear like chocolate, especially if you corner hard on them or underinflate them. Get the Continental Extreme Contact DWS 06 SportPlus

The Continental Extreme DWS 06 - sidewalls are super soft. Brush up against a curb and you will be looking for a replacement. Happened to a buddy of mine with an Audi using these tires.
I use the Michellin Pilot Sport A/S 3+ 255/50Z R19 on 2012 X6 50i I put about 10K miles so far - I have no complaints. |
