Thanks MRV99. I haven't been on the highway again to see if it's still doing it.

Thanks for the info gents. Just purchased a CPO X5M and am looking to replace the tires for the cold/winter stuff. Luckily I am in Seattle and we don't get much white stuff/mostly rain here unless you go over the passes and further up north into Canada. However am looking at a move back East next year to the PA/DE region so wonder if it would do good to replace the 20" OEM's with dedicated winters at that time or and A/S now? Wife's Q5 runs A/S and hasn't had any problems but have the ability to run two sets of tires on her car as well as my 5 series two as both have 19" and 20" (summer rims). So wonder should I adopt the same philosophy for the X5M and if so what tires would you really recommend. Thanks

I'm getting a very slight but noticeable vibration in the wheel around 50mph.

Any insight as to what it may be?

New tire break in? If so how long should I expect it to last?

Balance issue?

Alignment issue?

Any thoughts much appreciated.


Bridgestone Dueler HP summers w/ 9200 miles on them on the left, Conti Extreme Contact DWS all seasons on the right. This is a shot of the rear 315s.

Btw there's a long thread exclusively about theses DWS with a lot of good info - can't link when posting from iPhone. I didn't come across it until after deciding on these but anyone looking should search and read that one as well as this one here.

I had EXACTLY the same set up , all that you need is just to do "ROADFORCE BALANCE " tires stays on your SUV hubs it's most presicious adjustment .
