Well, the tires are pretty off from what I've been told, so I'm swapping them out next week. Thankfully Discount Tire has an awesome manager and he didn't have an issue with exchanging tire sets.

EDIT: Just reviewed this thread to see your build again. Damn, love the color with your bright wheels.


Oh I see you went with a 22" combo, right on. Good luck with your exchange.

I'm still running my 22" front / 23" rear...absolutely no issues. "BMW equal" tire wear (so normal). No odd wear on the inside despite nearly 6k miles lowered on these. Admittedly I don't think it's necessarily the tires but the suspension and the alignment is on point.

Does anyone know if this KW suspension would fit and work as intended on a M60i?

[S68 X5MC]

They only show an X5M across every site I've seen. I'd call the company direct and ask if they would work since the M60i should weigh about the same, so the springs operate properly.

It appears they have a product fitting the M60i. In fact, it’s good for all non-M variants of G05/G06

However, it’s a V3. For the proper M they have the V4 at 2.5x the price

Anyone care to briefly outline the difference between the two versions?

What was the reason for doing narrower and/or higher sidewall tires?

I will be getting my X6 M Comp LCI in a few weeks and one of the things I wanted to do from the get go is to change the wheels.

I know the LCI comes with a staggered (just like my C7) 21"/22" setup with 295/35 and 315/30 tires which results in 693 / 685 revs/mile.

A 23" all round setup comes with 285/35 and 325/30 which changes the revs/mile to 654 / 658.

A staggered 22"/23" setup with 275/35 and 325/30 makes for 682 / 658 revs/mile.

Can you share more details of your 22/23 setup?

Because you want the dimensions and everything else to match. When doing so, you're limited on tire choices.

Updated picture with the correct tires.
