Will 18/19" wheels from the old X5...

...work on the new X5? Is the new X5 tuned specifically for the new runflats?

Sure would be nice to carry over my type 69 with snow tires.

Thanks!

problem is, there is no place for a spare... so what happens if you get a flat?

An emergency repair kit would handle nail punctures, a tow for anything else. (BMW seems to think this is sufficient for my MCoupe.)

Just curious if the old rims will fit.
