20" Winter tires am I missing something

[Staszek]

So I was looking at winter tires for an M6 Gran Coupe. When you go on tire rack there are none available if you put in the vehicle. There are also none available if you put in the tire sizes together as a group 265/295.

But if you put in each tire size individually they do come up. What I am I missing the only thing I can think of is the load difference the front are 99V and the rears are 97V.

I've used Tire Rack a few times, including for winter tires. I think their winter tire inventory is separated from the summer / all season inventory, and the search on the winter side is total garbage.

I ended up calling them when placing my order and spoke with Theo who was helpful and friendly and ended up placing the order for me.

Thanks I use them a lot, and have bought several winter tires from them as well.

Funny thing is I just built a package using their rims (which I dont need) and it included the tires above as a fit.

I feel comfortable that this would work fine.

Shouldn't they both be extra load XL?

OP, you really should be running separate winter and summer rims and tires. Running 20-in Winters doesn't make a whole lot of sense. I run 19 inch winters. That said, I will be selling my hard-to-find 408M Wheels with winter tires soon. Are you interested? I'm right down the street from you relatively speaking

I always planned on running separate rims.

Anyway, I ended up with a 275 squared setup for the winter.
