Goodyear Dunlop Toyo Falken Nexen Hankook these are the tyres that we stock, however we can order in most major brands. thanks Johno
-
the wheels will work no problems however you will need to get locating rings to prevent any shake at 100km/h
-
should fit no problems, what offset are they? Do you know what car they came off? You may get a slight bit of rub on the back depending how low your car is and what the offset of the wheel is. Otherwise you should be sweet. Just make sure that if the wheels are not hub centric you get some locating rings otherwise you will get a lot of shake through the steering wheel at 80 - 100km/h
-

what kind of bimmer do you have? a 3 series should relatively easy to do yourself, however 5's and 7's take a lot longer as you have to take the whole back seat out - have you tried keith our forum sponsor, I am sure he will be able to help you out
-
don't buy them they will not fit without using a bolt-on adaptor. They will more than likely hit the inside struts on the front and most definitely hit on full lock.

yep Alpina, I had a great old time looking for tyres when Penry was looking at the car. No tyre dealer in the country imports 21" tyres except for the late model 7 series size which comes out as a factory 21" option. Obviously this is way too small to be on an X5

c'mon guys some people must have some thoughts
-
Tyres are a funny issue - some people want they best they can afford, others just want their car to get from A to B. Personally I prefer to buy the best tyre I can afford, however I can see that if you just want to 'do skids' or have excessive camber etc you wouldn't go putting a $400 Pirelli on the back. We use a little diagram at work which shows what we call the "Impossible Triangle" It looks a little something like this Price Quality (grip) Longevity (Life) You can only ever have TWO of these things without sacrificing the third If you want a Quality tyre with long life you pay the price If price and longevity are your two concerns you sacrifice the quality If quality and price are your 2 main concerns then don't expect the tyre to last long. Some people do not want or can afford to buy a high performance tyre. It doesn't mean the tyre is 'crap'! Manufacturing processes are becoming more and more refined hence tyre prices are coming down. Now you can buy a 'decent' 205/40/17 (Toyo) for around $170, a few years back these would have been up around $270. Granted a 'quality tyre' does make the world of difference when driving with some 'spirit', but if you are never going to 'push' the limits of the tyre do you really need the best available? It's like buying a pushbike - if all you are going to do is ride around One Tree Hill or the waterfront do you really need to spend $10k on a pro level bike? I am not advocating the 'cheap & nasty' tyres on the market - just trying to bring some perspective to this thread. Most of us on here are 'enthusiasts' and like to drive so naturally we prefer having a quality tyre underneath us. Personally I would feel pretty guilty about selling someone a premium top of the range tyre when all the are doing is toddling around the city in their little 318Ti. We have sold tyres at the 'bottom end' of the market, and the customers have come back raving about them - probably because they had more tread , but at the end of the day they were fit for their purpose. We also sell alot of mid to upper end tyres ( Goodyear, Dunlop, Toyo etc) and customers come back raving about them - again because they are fit for their purpose. I don't believe any new tyre on the market is 'crap'.They are simply fit for their purpose. Granted their can be quality issues with a cheaper brand but they still all pass E mark certification etc. 'Crap' is a subjective term and is bound by our personal experiences, If I think the latest M3 is 'crap' because the ride is too harsh and the exhaust too noisy, am I right? Or would I have been better off buying a 320i and speccing it with all the 'add-ons'? Should the salesperson even been selling me an M3? Whether or not the consumer chooses to believe what you recommend comes down to how a salesperson comes across. I think most tyre 'salespeople' these days tend to put too much of their personal opinions into selling rather than taking the time to find out what the customer actually needs. I would say at least 50% of the time what the customer needs and what they want are two different things. All you need to do is search these forums for everybody's 2 cents worth. I'm sure this will stir up a can of worms - but hey that is what a forum is for
-
haha, I was wondering how long it would take for that to come up. I too got quite excited when I saw the PCD and offset, unfortunately the only make them in 16's and 17's. The search continues!

hey guys (and gals) just wanting to guage interest on this wheel to suit your E30's. It is a 17x7 at 30ET so will not require the use of any adaptors or spacers. The picture is a CAD drawing I am sorry, but it should give you an idea of the wheel. Comes with a nice machined lip, and yes I am aware the picture is of a 5 stud wheel, it is DEFINITELY available in 4 stud
-
no sorry, but I do havesome BBS styles 19's I can do in 19x8.5 and 19x9.5 cheers Johno
-

-
18x8.5 ET20 or ET35 cheers Johno
-
