Can I fit non-runflat tyres to my BMW X1?
Can I swap the runflat tyres on my BMW X1 XDrive M Sport auto for non-runflats?

Yes, but then you will need to buy a spare wheel and find somewhere to put it. If your X1 is on stupid 19-inch wheels with 225/45 R19 fronts and 255/40 R19 rears then the profile of the tyres is the problem, not that they are runflats. For a more comfortable ride you can fit 18-inch wheels with 225/50 tyres or 17-inch with 225/55 tyres.
From choosing the right tyre to what to do when it goes wrong - we have the answers.
