In addition, they have some cars (like the M2 CS)       that have different sizes on front and back (and widths). M2 CS has 19 in the       front and 20 in the rear. I had an X3 M40i. 20" all around but staggered and       directional summer runflats. Can't rotate, 15-20k miles tops out of each       tire, and after labor and all $2250-2500 for a set of tires.                     Rob              ...
