on my X5, which has the carnivorous V-8 under the hood however, I just discovered tires that can practically do just about anything that I have intended to do with my X5. It is the Nokian WR "All-Weather Plus" tires that are made in Finland. While that may sound like a fancy name for all-seasons, there is an important distinction: these tires bear the severe service emblem, and at the same time carry a pro rata tread wear warranty of 80,000 km., which is quite handy if you live in a very harsh climate country like Canada. Ok�back to our normal programming.

Interesting tire.

I'm running the factory Bridgestone run flats. They're not as bad as some folks have written on various internet sites.... but they're not great. Once they wear out, I'll look into other brands but the choices are somewhat limited for run flats.

I had a 2002 X5 3.0. It was fun yet practical. I'm now driving the 330xi (AWD) which understandably handles better and still somewhat practical but can't carry all the junk I buy at the hardware / lumber store. For that, I use my wife's SUV. ;-)
