New Michelin Pilot Sport 4 SUV tire
I think I saw this in the X5 forum. Apologies if it's old news, but these look like they could be pretty promising.

I see it's available in multiple 21" and 22" sizes. Don't know if they'd fit the X7 wheels. I see they're described as summer tires, not all-weather.

it did not come on pirellis or blizzard, as is the case in europe... they came on michelin alpin run flats |

ppagiga I'll echo the congrats! So, are you saying your car came with the default 21" 754 wheels for the M-sport line, AND you bought a 2nd winter tire setup, also mounted on 754 wheels? That's what I may end up having to do, to ensure good winter performance. Sucks the winter tires are runflats too.

yeah man this thing exceeds my expectations. the interior accommodations are much better than the dimensions would have you believe. i've got two non tethered, but latched, kids in the captains seats and another kid in the third row and it's working. not to mention the fit, finish just came out great. i'm just too lazy right now to share pics but i'll forward some later for those looking for tartufuo with black fineline pics. for anyone on fence about bench vs captains, captains really creates an incredible atmosphere. provided, you don't need seating for 7 and cargo capacity isn't an issue. ive got a thule motion xt XXL (22 cubic ft) I plan to try to mount on the vehicle to see how it works, using BMW's cross bars. 3 crappy pics for you guys one more thing i'd add: the front of the car (hood) is nicely squared off which makes tricky navigation easier. if you are in a traffic sh*t show like i was going over NYC bridges at rush hour you will appreciate that greatly |

ppagiga the very first X7 I test drove was the 40i in Carbon Black with the same wheels you have, beautiful. I almost never prefer dark colors but that Carbon Black (which really looks like very dark blue) is maybe the best looking dark color I ever seen. Congratulations!
