Red face 22 inch wheels on a 2008 X5?
Attention Australian X5 owners,Can anyone help me ? I have purchased a 2008 X5 sd and have ordered my 22 inch STRUT rims, however, i'm struggling with what tyres i should be running on them. I'm getting various different opinions from tyre shops. If anyone is running 22"s please let me know.
1. they have to have the same roll out diameter front and rear.
2. they have to be load rated
3. front is 9.5 and rear is 11
Thanks.
Pippa

The tire specs are 285/35/22 for front (22x9.5) and 315/30/22 for rear (22x11). I'm running it without any problems.

I took a picture today and here it is!!!
It's 22X9.5 with 285/35/22 front and 22X11 with 315/30/22.
I ordered wider fender flares since my rims stick out lil bit.
I'll post up my final pictures after I install fender flares.

Here's a back image... For some reason, it looks narrow in this picture. Width of my rear tire is same as the one with the 20" OEM Y-spoke rear tires (Both are 315 width). You can see them in your local BMW dealer.
