Hybrid X1, so what they'll try to tell us is that it will get 65MPG or something, and more realistically get 40?

On a side note. Hideous wheels! Nice winter tires though. Anyone know what brand those are?

They look like M3's.

And given it's BMW, there is an RFT version:

Nice. I'll have to shop around for a winter set as it gets closer to next winter.

Actually, I think they're Dunlop Winter Sport 3D's.

You can read on the first front tire "Winter Sport M"

Looks different without exhaust pipes

You're correct ... the tread pictured on Tire Rack looked more aggressive at first glance. My bad.

Why not just bring a diesel X1 to the states. I would buy that today. No thanks on the hybrid.

My SA and I talked about that yesterday. Europe gets all the good diesels and NA is left out. And then on top of that, Canada is left further behind than the states. We can't get the sDrive, the M package on the 28i, nor can we get the HK in the 28i.

I actually really like them. It give the x1 in my opinion a more rugged look.

I just find they look like the 2006 or so Ford truck wheels.
