I just changed out the tires and put the Hakkas on the 19" Style 449 wheels. My plan is buy a set of 20" Style 336 wheels for my Spring/Summer/Fall set-up and put some Continental ExtremeContact DWS rubber on them.

The RFT Verde's that came with the X5 will occupy a place in my garage for putting back onto the 449s for when I trade it in as soon as I reach 75k miles (~4 years). My experience has been that if you don't have relatively new run flats on the vehicle when you do a trade-in for a new BMW, the dealership knocks $1,000-1,500 off the trade-in value.
