How wheel size changes the cost of BMW X5 tyres

The cheapest BMW X5 fitment to re-tyre is 255/50 R19 107W XL run-flat (F15) at about £839 for a mid-range fitted set; the dearest is 275/35 R22 104Y XL run-flat with 315/30 R22 107Y XL run-flat rears (G05) at about £1,226 — 1.5 times as much.

That is 3 inches of rim, about £129 more per set for each extra inch.

3 of the 6 fitments are staggered (different front and rear sizes). Staggered tyres cannot be rotated between axles, so the driven axle usually wears out first and pairs are replaced separately.

6 fitments use run-flat tyres, which cost more to buy and to fit.

Choosing premium over mid-range brands moves the most expensive set from £1,226 to £1,500.

How often you pay depends on wear as well as price: car tyre cost explains how 73 Auto turns these prices into a yearly figure for a specific car.
