Introduction to my new 5 series
Hello everyone!
After a long absence from the BMW family, I'm finally back into my new to me 5 series. I found a nice equipped 2015 BMW 550xi. So I do have some questions, I'm not a fan of these run flat tires. My plan was switch them out and get some new tires and a 20" rims for the summer. Then when winter came about I would switch the rft back in. Any recommendations for rims, I was planning on using Michelin pilot sports for my tires.

Welcome! and awesome looking ride.
As for the run flats, I ditched mine as soon as I could and got a set of Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3+. These are really good for all year around (sun, rain & even snow). |

Welcome and congrats!
I've heard great things about Michelin tires, but have no personal experience with them. I have used Continental Extreme Contact DW and DWS tires, and have loved them. Just my 2cents |
