The 2006 BMW X5 requires different tire sizes for the front and rear wheels primarily due to its design and performance characteristics. This staggered setup enhances handling, stability, and traction, particularly during cornering and acceleration. Additionally, the different sizes help accommodate the vehicle's weight distribution and improve overall driving dynamics, ensuring optimal performance across various driving conditions.
