I have a 2008 X5 4.8i with the 20 inch sport wheels. When I bought the car I was super frustrated, the car has the OE run flat tires and they are horrible. I then got some Blizzaks on 19inch wheels and I started to LOVE my X5. The ride became 10 times quieter, the cars ride became very SOFT, and the car completely stopped pulling all over the road. In MA our roads are very bumpy and uneven so cars hit bumps and pull side to side.
I have decided after winter to get new tires for my 20's. I wanted to get input, I cant be the only one who had these requirements for a tire. Here is what I want in order:
- Comfort Comfort comfort
- No more Pulling (maybe related to wide rims, but I'm sure it can be reduced with the right tires).
- Quiet (reduced road noise). Don't car about winter performance as I have winter tires.
