About a week to deliver but that was mid fall (well before winter season). Reach out to your service department Monday morning to see if they’re available. Good luck!

I have the winter wheel package on order too since the first week of Nov. The parts guy at my dealer just updated me and said the shipment that whatever BMW tire center they use did not get the shipment they were expecting mid-November and it's "early December" now. Who the heck knows!

Apparently the 808m wheels are shipped from Germany and then the Pilot Sport Alpins are put on once they arrive in the USA.

As of now it is supposed to be the second week of December for arrival and dealerships with them being fit the first week of December.

After a A LOT of back & forth with various dealerships, and hearing everything from "can't order them" to "will take 5 months" to "not sure when they'll come in - we'll call you" ...

I got a few different stories from a very few useful dealerships:

(1.) The wheel/tire combo is shipped from Munich, Germany w/ limited availability
However all of the "American" version of this combo are sold out, so only the German tire version are left currently showing available during a system search, i.e., not for the USA; but there will be an update next week (week after thanksgiving). These dealership were basically "you can order and we'll call you later with an update" ... that story kinda matches this:

(2.) The Wheels & Tires are Separate, with new shipments incoming
This story kinda matches the above story in that if there are no "usa tires" then BMW would have to rely on a US tire distributor, albeit via BMW's supply/logistics chain for the purchasing, ie., BMW is contracting with Michelin for a guaranteed # at a guaranteed price, and then the tire distributor matches them up in the US. These dealerships basically said "no point in ordering until they hear from the distributor next week, so we'll call you"

(3.) End Run to the Tire Distributor for incoming
Again, kinda matches the above: because BMW has no USA compatible combos & is outsourcing to a contractor to match up the wheels & tires on the US side, BMW dealerships can use the tire distributor as the source for the order rather than the normal BMW system path.


NET-NET
As of Thanksgiving Week 2021:
After calling a bunch of dealership across 2 states, I was able to confirm an order through a dealership via #3: i.e., the parts team called their tire distributor directly and placed the order directly through them.

That said, the distributor told them they had a shipment of 150 sets incoming and 85 were already spoken for, so of course I jumped on it and ordered it despite the dealership being 1.5 hours away. I'm more than happy to reward to smarties.

Great info Gruss, thank you! I'm going to call tomorrow and make sure my set that's "on order" maps to one of those sets at the distributor coming in.

Congrats! I'm hoping I can get them in a few weeks as the farther into Dec / Jan I go the larger the chance of a cold snap

As a general update for anyone considering, I ordered before Thanksgiving and just got an update to expect them here (west coast) in late dec as apparently the ship is here but has to be unloaded and they need to be shipped to the dealership.

Does anyone have a line on where we can get the Pirelli winters that fit the F95. They seem to be backordered at all of the major tire distributors.

I've had a couple of tire shops search and supply issue appears to be predominantly associated lack of availability for the rear tires (315/30-22). As of last week, Pirelli simply didn't manufacture enough. There is supposed to be a shipment on the way, however much of the tires on there might already be spoken for.

I've decided to go the 808M orbit grey winter 21" winter wheel setup route with Michelin Pilot Alpin 5s. Availability for the 295/35-21 Pilot Alpins isn't an issue with the only added hassle being (i) additional upfront cost for a 2nd set of wheels and (ii) swapping out wheel/tires 2x/yr (although with Pirelli Winters I would be swapping out tires 2x/yr anyway as well.) I'll report back with my progress, post pics when the setup is complete and likely provide a high level review of the 808M wheels, square winter setup, fitment and performance/ride of the Pilot Alpins under varying winter conditions.

I initially wanted the pirelli scorpion 21/22 winters. I started looking early November, and realized it wasn't going to happen bc of the 22" shortage.

Getting my oem winters installed tomorrow. Probably not as sharp as keeping the comp wheels on all year round, but oem never disappoints with the winters. Happy to just "set autopilot" and forget it. Path of least resistance.
