The X5 came with 22" and know the tire pressure for that set. I moved to a 20" 275/45 and 305/40 Michelin's PA5 for the winter. How do you determine the right tire pressure? Currently they are set at 35 psi in the front and 42 psi in the rear. What should they be?

BTW, I thought the 275/35/22; 315/30/22 recommended psi was 39/45. Did you find that too high?

Front: 275/35 R22.... 38 PSi Rear: 315/30 R22 .... 45 PS I have been running the above psi without issue. Kief, Sorry not sure of the correct PSI for your 2020 X5 M50i. But the Owners Manual has the tire pressure for the 2019 X5 50i at and can only assume its similar for the 2020 X5 M50i. - Tire inflation pressure values "up to" 100 mph/160 km/h. Front: 275/35 R22 .... 38 PSI Rear: 315/40 R22 .... 45 PSi -Tire inflation pressure values "over" 100 mph/160 km/h Front: 275/35 R22 ... 44 PSI Rear: 315/30 R22 ... 49 PSI

Was the tire temperature always visible? Mine only has the pressure but no temperature!

I have the temps noted here in the US without the need to code. Sorry for starting another thread below on 22" psi, but I just find 39/45 psi seems so high. Not sure why? I'm not overly concerned about comfort, rather lasting tire wear and avoiding a blow out bc they are set so high.

Another issue I have with the recommended 39/45 psi, is bc that's for five passengers and/or luggage. What's the recommended psi for just a driver and passenger?

For comfort, I'll probably play with some lower pressure levels, but I don't like to deviate too far from recommended (although I recognize the recommendations are probably biased toward safety/liability avoidance). FYI, I keep the tire pressure screen as one of my 8 preset buttons so I can easily check it. |

Does anyone use the iDrive Tire Pressure Monitor figures instead of a good tire pressure gauge? When reading the manual, it looks like they have iDrive numbers as a method of checking. This doesn't make sense, since there is an option to reset upon filling. I always use a good digital gauge...

And doesn't 52psi exceed the max psi on the tire itself, be careful!

Correction to my earlier post: what I thought was a change in recommended pressure because of the tire type I selected, appears to be the result of changing tire temperatures. In other words, the system is telling what your tire pressures should read based on their temperature, hotter = higher pressure. Makes sense and takes away the 'cold' pressure confusion for some folks.
Kief, I had selected 100mph+ which I believe would be a higher recommended pressure than at 'up to 100mph'. |

Not sure I follow you on the resetting comment. Resetting doesn't recalibrate the iDrive readings, if that's what you meant. |

Sorry misspoke. I was under the impression you got the reading Cold on a digital gauge then hit the button in iDrive to measure the pressure. Then it basically reset itself based off your work with the digital gauge. I figured that’s why they were always so close, the iDrive reading and digital. I was just curious since it was in the manual.
