hhhm3 is an unknown quantity at this point
X5 tire size

On the E70 X5 35d with sport package.
Just wondering is it really worth while to have wider tire in the rear than having the same width all around.

275/40/20 on the front
315/35/20 on the rear

or 275/40/20 fro front and rear.
This options is cheaper and can rotate the tire front to back or cross.

On Tirerack, when I input my vehicle spec, it says I can do either option.
So, is it worth it and what is the real advantage? A little to more grip and stability on the rear? Not that 275 width is not wide enough already...
