OEM 827m staggered with Michelin all season for my cold weather setup

[FrankieNuo]

Mounted a square setup of 19” 827m wheels wrapped in 275/35R-19 VREDESTEIN WINTRAC PRO; TMPS courtesy of r33_RGSport, best deal hands down.

Looks good. What did this run you total?

That’s pretty good. I tried pricing it out and I was going to be at 4k to 4.5k depending which tires I got after adding in the tpms, center caps, mobile mount/balance. Local pickup for the 826m winter setup from the dealer is about 4.7k with tax. Not a huge savings, but I do like the fact 275/35R19 winter tires can be found. Probably just going to spring for the 826m’s vs dealing with piecing everything together at this point. Gotta love the m tax. Last go around for the f82 ran me 2800.

Vmr’s & Wintracs. I do have 15mm spacers on all around from summer wheels, will probably go to a 12mm in front to help with rock chips.

Went with the 826m staggered setup. Picked them up from the dealer like this. Looks like the dealer pays $885 a piece wholesale for the fronts. I didn’t find a packing slip for the rears.

Installed OEM winters, surprised how much less road noise there is compared to OEM pirelli summers

Awesome, thank you

I have an extra set of OEM wheels/TPMS/etc. Will the BMW dealer sell just the tires and mount/switchover from summer to winter PA5 tires in OEM 275/35R19 and 285/30R20?

Who do I call at the dealer? Parts?

I can't find any winter tires in the OEM sizes anywhere (other than a few left over tires that are discontinued).

Thanks.

When I inquired they couldn’t order the rear tire so I just bought the staggered 826m setup. Other options are running a square set since finding the front tire size appears to be easier. I’m low mileage so the set should last my ownership period.

I understand. But I already have 2 sets of staggered OEM 19/20 wheels with summer tires. I was looking to put winter tires on one of them. Not looking to buy any more wheels.

I just need to find a set of winter tires in OEM sizes. I can’t believe this has become so hard.

Is this like a conspiracy? Last time I had a car with 285/30/20 rear tires there were ton of options.

Vredestein Wintrac Pro or Pirelli's are really your only options. I just picked up the former in 275/35/19 and 275/30/20 and will be mounting them on 826Ms.

Tire Rack. Sub $1k and at my door in 2 days. Can’t beat it.

H.Dog,
Thx for your feedback. It pushed me to buy the Type 50 today, wrapped in Cont. X Contact dws06. (I won't be driving mine in any snow, just waether too cold for summer only tires.)

GTS G512 wheels (square 19x9.5, +20) with Vredestein Wintrac Pros (275/35/19). Added 13mm spacers to the rears so they sit where the stock 20" 825M would.
