Tires for BMW X5
I've been offered a set of tires for my X5. They're 255/35 18's low profile summer rubber. The book says 255/55. Anyone got any experience/advice on running such low profile rubber on the X5, Mines a 4.4i. I've got winter tires so would like to get something for the summer or all season. Would these do?
