G26 440i GC winter tyre set

     Featured on BIMMERPOST.com
Hi guys! My G26 will be delivered in December. It will come on 245/40/19 front and 255/40/19 rear Pzero tyres. I cannot find details about 861 wheels - are front and rear the same? I don’t want to buy winter wheel/tyre set. Just interesed can I put 245/40/19 square winter set on all wheels. Or maybe should I go for 255/40/19 rear winter cause xdrive reasons? Thanks!

If you have a Xdrive and want a staggered setup you need to get the proper size to not mess up your transmission, Keirs Motorsport has a good video explaining the calculation.

I would stick with a 245 squared setup with Xdrive, smaller tires are better for the winter due to the lesser surface area, but summer time I would consider doing a staggered setup if I was looking at doing so.

Hi Jtw318, my 440iGC xdrive already comes on staggered wheels and tyres.

I have found that front wheel size is 8,5J and rear 9J. So the question is will 245/40 fit on the rear 9J wheel?

After a search I finally ordered Pirelli P Zero Winter 245/40/19 front and 255/40/19 rear set. I have found BMW sells only two winter sets that fit 440iGC. The 18’s aerodynamic set is butt ugly and 19 set comes with the same Goodyear or Pirelli staggered setup. Although I opted for square setup for my previous BMW’s that had much greater difference between summer front and rear widths (245-275 5er, 275-315 X5), I hope this 10mm difference won’t be noticed when driving on snowy roads.
