Hi all, i bought these around 2 years ago from another member on here who bought them from Sytners. As you can see, there in very good condition, not curbed and in very good original condition. They have also, genuine BMW TPS Valves which when put on your F15 X5, they talk straight to the i drive. Each tyre has at least 5mm and have all worn very evenly, any questions please ask, selling due to selling my X5 which is advertised also on this great site, cheers Mark

£500

Priced dropped if anyone interested... all original wheels and tyres.

NOW SOLD

Hi all, not getting any interest in these genuine winter alloys and tyres, please feel free to let me no what price you think there possibly worth. I see copy alloys and not genuine tps going for less, so maybe its not that important to buyers ?? will not be offended and thanks in advance for any help and prices

I think its maybe the fact they are 18's Mark which are a bit small these days , 20's are the minimum it seems now ( just my opinion ) Once winter hits that's the time to be selling these , people are not thinking of winter just yet ..

hi and thanks for reply. Winter tyres are better the smaller they are or they was ?? You don't see many 20" winter tyres or again you didn't ? would be nice if someone like X5 sport would explain, cheers

Narrower is better up to a point ( the rolling radius will be the same regardless of wheel diameter ) but in the real world you won't get any further than the line of traffic in front if they have summer tyres and get stuck so only fine in theory !
I actually just bought some budget 20" winters for mine recently they seem to be easier to get now than a few years ago.

Right, it looks like my X5 is sold on Friday, so these genuine alloys with winter tyres will not be needed anymore. Any sensible offers on here will be answered, rather they go to someone on here before i lower price on ebay, cheers Mark

Narrower means greater ground pressure forcing snow into tread ‘sipes’ on winter rubber = better grip.

GLWTS and what are you replacing the X5 with?

Hi X5SPORT, first want to thank you and all members on this group who have given me some great advice over many years with my 3 Beamers, For time being i still have 2 cars and just going to use them as we doing hardly any miles which is why i gave the X5 a go at selling. Will definitely be back in a BMW at some point but I've decided to go part time and my wives new job she starts soon is also part time, so lets see what the future brings, Will still be about on here checking up on you all, stay safe all, Cheers Mark
