As noted, my bride's Audi has the 'tire rotation' system, and it was purchased in the USA. It's an '09 model, so unless something has changed, the system is accepted here.
Also as noted, it makes fitting winter tires painless, because no electronic stems are required to make the system work, nor any difficulty when installing the winter tires. Bolt them on and tell the system to accept the diameters of the new tires; done.
I'm planning on a set of winters from the Tire Rack for next season, and I'll have to bite the bullet regarding the TPMS for the X1.
