Do M wheel/tires fit on non M version?

If someone on X5M had 295/35r-21 wheel/tire set , would those fit on the regular x5? Or is there a difference that will prevent it from doing so? Thanks!

Non M stock 21” is 275/45R21. 295/35R21 is just 2.1% larger in diameter. This aspect, I don’t see why it won’t work if you out this in all 4 corners. Transfer case won’t know. Actual speed will ve 2.1% faster.

Please also check center hub pattern and offset.

I bought this combination from Costco but had to cancel as they would not install. The load rating of a 295/35/21 tire is much lower than that of a OEM 315/35/21. Would it be ok, nevertheless.....probably. Or perhaps they could blow out if you load up the car enough and hit a big enough pothole. Who knows.
No major tire shop will install them. If you get someone to install them, no major tire shop will patch them up if you get a puncture.

Any thoughts if x7 wheel/tires would fit?
