The iX will have 3 different wheel sizes to choose from:

• 20 inches (standard)
• 21 inches
• 22 inches

The optional 21 and 22 inch Air Performance Wheels reduce drag thanks to their V-spoke aluminum wheel design.

The Air Performance Wheels are made of an aluminum base wheel with customized inserts between the spokes that gives them a flat design, especially on the outside of the wheel, resulting in far smoother airflow. They weigh around 15 per cent less than conventional light-alloy wheels. Range is increased by as much as 9 miles (WLTP measurement) courtesy of the Air Performance Wheels.

Q: If you order the car with the sports package, the wheels are increased to 21’. Does this mean that sports brakes are not compatible with 20’ wheels?

Welcome to the forum @IXRoar! Are you ordering the xDrive40 or xDrive50? There might be a slight size difference for brakes between the two.

Hi thx, and great to have a forum. I have ordered the xDrive40 with sports package and 21 wheels. But need an extra set for the winter and are considering 20 for that purpose!

UPDATE: BMW confirms that I can use 20’ wheels on xDrive40 with sports brakes.
