Winter tire size for G30
Hi all,
Wondering if anyone can shed some light as to if 225/50/R18 is a good winter tire size for the 2018 530 xi ? I'm thinking of getting Nokian HAKKAPELIITTA 9 studded run flats. The all seasons the car has are 245/40/R19 but I wanted to get a narrower tire for better traction. |

Just get the 245/45/18, it will be better on most surfaces. Narrow winter tires are only better in very loose snow.

Thank you!
So, 225/50/R18 is what I'm going to go with. However, the overall tire diameter is slightly different from the original tire size as such, revolutions per mile is 0.5% different from the original size. Would that deviation be considered excessive? https://www.wheel-size.com/calc/?whe...cl=50mm&sr=0mm |
