20s are back on!
 

AAAHHHHH! After a long and tough Montreal winter, time to enjoy the big 20''s again! Just put them back on again today and wow I am as amazed as the first time I drove them last year. They truly transform the ride of the X5. It truly drives like a sport sedan! Love it!

how much does it cost to swap tires for you?

costs $40 - $50 to swap wheels in Toronto...depending on which dealer does it for you

Might as well do them yourself, this way you make sure they dont scratch anything and that they are torqued right with a torque wrench.

more power to you that you can do this so much. The one time I had to take the 19s out of my trunk (replaced with permanent all season 20s) it was not light work. I can't imagine loading them all up, having them swapped, then taking out the replaced ones afterward... twice a year. It's just a lot of work in and out of the back of the X there and they're not exactly light.

I guess you guys with the heavy snow don't have much of a choice if you want 20s.

:worthless:
;)

I believe in most cases, the shop offers winter tire/wheel storage service so that you don't have to carry 4 tire/wheels in your trunk.

Agreed. Most shops torque the bolts WAY beyond the required spec.

Anyhow, it's always nice to be back on summers!
