I got few months ago X5 with 22" summer tires, and tried to get the tires for the winter. The local BMW dealer told me that I am not allowed to drive on 22" winter tire because those are not approved by BMW and I should buy the tires and rims that are smaller?!?!?!? what the is this? I never heard anything like this. I am afraid if I buy pirelli's scorpion that they will not admit the warranty if needed for any reason.
BMW installed my 22" Scorpions. Initially it sounded like they wouldn't do it, but I told them this is my only option. I did not want to buy a separate set of rims for this lease (although they could be sold later) so I opted to keep the look of the 22s for the winter. We'll see how it goes 😬
