Snow chains
Only certain fine-link snow chains have been tested by BMW, classified as safe for use and recommended. Consult your service center for more information.
BMW X5: use only in pairs on the rear wheels, equipped with tires of the following size:
▷ 255/55 R 18
▷ 255/50 R 19
BMW X6: use only in pairs on rear wheels of size
255/50 R 19.
Observe the manufacturer's instructions when mounting snow chains. Do not exceed a speed of 30 mph/50 km/h when using snow chains.
Do not initialize the Flat Tire Monitor if snow chains are mounted; otherwise, the instrument might issue an incorrect reading.
When driving with snow chains, it can be beneficial to temporarily activate DTC
