Autoglym 255 Report post Posted January 4, 2016 I know this has been done to death, but I am looking for options to replace the tyres, rims on my E28 M535i, still has the original Michelin TRX run flats on it, that are almost new, so would like to keep them that way Really like the look of BBS!! Any suggestions,options or photos would be great Regards Barry Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eliongater 718 Report post Posted January 4, 2016 16x8 or 17x8 if your suspension is in good condition seems to be the sweet spot for looks vs performance. Some suggestions are throwing stars (turbines, stars or naked), style 4 or 5, alpinas, hartge, BBS Mahle, RS, RZ or RC Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

scottbeattie 63 Report post Posted January 5, 2016 Sure, they wouldn't come with the tyres though. Can take more photos if you want, but this gives you a visual of what they look like Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

scottbeattie 63 Report post Posted January 10, 2016 Damn those look good, what tyres do you have considering they're ET25? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BM WORLD 1283 Report post Posted January 10, 2016 e38 ones are ET23 , I ran 225/50-16 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scottbeattie 63 Report post Posted January 10, 2016 e38 ones are ET23 , I ran 225/50-16 Sorry Brent, that was meant for M M! But that's exactly what I'm running at the moment with the style 4s, front tyres were rubbing on the struts though so would rather get something that fits betterSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M M 250 Report post Posted January 10, 2016 (edited) Mine have 225/50R16s as well, no rubbing at all. They may actually be ET23, I'd have to check on the wheel. Edited January 10, 2016 by M M Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BM WORLD 1283 Report post Posted January 10, 2016 depends on tyre , how much of a curb protector the tyre has weither they rub see here my race slicks have square sides so no rubbing but the rim is close to the strut Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I'll just post here to finalise, Brent was right, they are et23. I have just less than a finger between the spring perch and tyre but it's enough not to rub.
