Hi,
Not getting very far with my dealer in getting winter tyre sizes for the 19" OEM wheels.
Could someone with an F80/82 have a quick look in the manual and maybe take a snap of the wheel/tyre sizes page, please?
There are normally 2-3 different wheel/tyre combinations for Summer and Winter rubber.
Thanks in advance.
Jack

There are I understand 2 OEM winter wheel styles

- 640M (8,5x18 + 9x18) OR
- 641M (8,5x19 + 9x19)

The 19s are needed for the Ceramic brake option.

Tyre size is I believe 255/40 for the 18s and 255/35 for the 19s with Conti TS810p tyres. Note that despite the 1/2 difference in wheel size the same tyre size is recommended.

I understand that the wheel sets will not be available in the UK until at least November. I have bought a set of the 18" 640Ms obtained by dealer from Germany and will fit Pilot Alpins as I already Have 2 slightly used in the suggested size.

Op, tell your dealer to check the ETK, the info is all on there, or see post above if they really can't be bothered.

Thanks guys.

I don't have the car yet, so can't check the door jam or manual myself.

Dealer has now come back to me and has quote 235/35 R19 96V as the tyre size.

Now confused.

What size? The 850P isn't yet made in 255/35 R19, so the 830P is still the one to get. There's a * marked version too.

235/45R17 97V XL TL FR WinterContact TS850 P

is what you want. Conti will have stock of them on Tuesday, so any retailer should be able to get you a set.

Thanks Jon - is the 850P SUV available yet in the UK for 20" 275 tyres (Range Rover Sport?). I dont believe it is but wanted to check. Have also asked you online on Facebook.

Only tyre they have is a 275/45 R20, which is the older CrossContact winter.
