COrth is on a distinguished road
I just purchased another set of wheels, tires, etc. for my wife's X5 to use in the winter in the Southeast US. Her X5 has huge summer tires and I want some all-season tires for safety in the winter. My region's climate is warm enough that true winter tires would probably be a bad idea, as I understand winter tires are not recommended when more than 40 deg F out. I ended up buying the wheels from Ebay and tires and TPMS from Tirerack.com. Tirerack.com had the best price on the TPMS with valve stems. The tires I chose are Michelin Latitude Tour HP ZP -- all season, run flats (X5 is my wife and kids' driver). I'll chose an installer in my area from Tirerack.com's recommended list, and I'll reuse the center caps since changing them out should be a minor inconvenience.
