You should have replied "We could make that happen"!

I've gotten a few comments on the X5 but nothing that stood out.

Thanks! :thumbup: Unfortunately, I'll putting my winter set on soon, Style 210. The look so ordinary, and don't do much for the M Sport styling.

I love the front bumper of the LCI M Sport...congrats on a nice ride!:2thumbs:

I suppose I could switch to all-seasons; that's a good idea. :thumbup: I'll have to consider that when my tires need replacing. I didn't think 275/40ZR20 and 315/35ZR20 were available in all-seasons, but I just checked Tire Rack, and they have a few different brands. Thanks! :thumbup::thumbup:

EDIT: I just saw this on Tire Rack's website:

NOTE: While Crossover/SUV Touring All-Season light truck tires offer all-season versatility including traction in light snow, tire sizes featuring extremely wide tread widths may limit the traction this type of tire can provide in deep snow.

yeah but I haven't had to go into any deep snow here in NY in the 3 years I've had these 315 widths. Just be careful like always and you'll be fine. Oh and pack a short shovel just in case. ;)

I had a guy come up to me at the kids daycare and say that it looked bad a$$ from behind and looked like a tank. Then he crawled back in got into his ML320. I knew those 315's were wide and looked awesome from behind, but when I had them next to my 255 Winters last night they looked friggin huge.

True, we typically don't get big snow storms here in NJ, but last year we had three biggies...15", 19" and 20". Nevertheless, I'll have to consider 20" 315's when I replace my stock tires. Thanks again for the advice! Oh, and sorry to thread jack.

Get looks and compliments frequently.

But I probably stare at other X5's more than people look at mine. Love the way the X5 looks. Even enjoy looking at other stock X5's zooming around. Though my favorites are the X5M, MSport and ones that have stuff done.
