Good luck with your new car! Just thinking, if the Sport Package on your 535xi is fitted with UHP RFT Summer tires you're going to need a quick refit with the appropriate all-season or winter tires. Even with full tread depth, UHP Summer tires are not suitable (even are dangerous) at temps > 40 degrees and in snow or ice.

It came with all 4 tires as Mud and Snow!!!! I believe that is what comes with the XI and they are not off set.

Mud and Snow, aka all weather, are not the same as "winter". Quite a big difference for winter driving.
