Can i run 225/50/18 square setup for Xdrive?
Can I run a square setup of 225/50/18 (vs the oem 225/45/18 front) on Xdrive?
Im aware of the 1/2 inch higher height and the speedometer will be off...i want higher sidewalls for the winter Any concerns for Xdrive here? Thanks

I have run 245/40-19 square on xDrive without problems. 225/50-18 is only 4mm bigger in diameter, so you'll probly be fine with the narrower tire. It is 3.5% taller than stock and I don't know what the implications are with that, if any.
