Who has taken delivery of 35i recently?

Has anyone taken delivery of an X5 35i with Sport Package with the 20" 214 wheels recently? Can you confirm what kind of tires come on it? I am being told it will come with the Dunlop SP Sport MAXX tires.

I am under the impression the 214's come with the Dunlops and the 336's on the 50i come with the Bridgestones.

Can anyone confirm this?

Doesn't the manufacturer reserve the right to put whichever tire they want on it? Depends on pricing and availability, they will have more than one source for most components.

I've never seen 214's on anything other than Dunlop Sport MAXX and the 336's other than Bridgestones. I don't know if it's because of fitment or just contractual that they agreed with those manufacturers.

JCL -
I would tend to agree with you.

Although, I guess my question is more... What has BMW been putting on the 35i most recently?

At the end of the day, I won't know for 100% until I pick up the truck.

"What has BMW been putting on the 35i most recently?"

Depending on your trim level and the size of the rim. All different.

When I asked that question, it was a clarification on my original post... But I should have been more specific.

What has BMW been putting on the X5 35i with Sport Activity package with the 20" 214 wheels?

From what I am reading on the forums, the consensus seems to be the Dunlops.
