Hi,
I recently got a 2022 x5 e45 (I had a x5 2017 before this one). The tires on the front have more thread than the ones in the rear.
My question is: does the xDrive transmission always provides 50/50 traction front/rear or it does something different (and maybe more adaptive)?
Basically I am wondering what I should expect in terms tires wear between front and rear moving forward and how I should go about it in terms of rotating these tires.
Thanks you all in advance!

iDrive system in the 45e has 40:60 rear: front bias during normal driving and will dynamically change depending on road conditions

You didn’t mention wheel size. square or staggered setup?

Rear tires wear faster is normal for
RWD base car. Especially 45e type of car, that 700ish lb battery is mainly in rear axial. Traction is really a function of grip of the tires. When you out more weight on a axial or weight shift to that axial, that axial has more traction. Tires natural faster there.

As for rotation, I think if possible , it is always a good idea. So yes, do you have stagger or square setup?

Sorry for the late reply. I have 20inch tires, I have a square setup (all tires are the same). Thank you for your replies!
