Wheels Question

It is my first post here so pardon me if my question has been answered before.
My X5 has the 19'' wheels and I am using a 17'' setup for the winter. Does anyone know if the 17'' rims fit the new model? So if I upgrade to an e70 should I keep those rims for winter use?

Thank you in advance and pardon my english

I can't answer your question but where in Greece would you need a winter setup? My Sister in Law is Greek and no one in her family has winter tires They live in Longades.

I am in Athens but drive to the mountains a lot. With the Diamaris this can be a disaster and for my size I can not find any decent all weather tyre.

paral,
the oem or replica 17s should fit fine on your current
X, and you will be amazed at the "dig" you get with
dedicated snow tires.

I have no knowledge if the 17s will fit on the new
E70...my guess is they will, but that's a guess.
GL,mD

PS: Your English is fine...no apology needed!
