winters for stock wheels

john970 · 08-26-2010, 03:51 PM

Are there any winter tires that will fit the stock rims other than the pirelli run flats? They cost a fortune.

Bridgestone makes a few RFT snows that fit if you want to go that route.

Good Year also makes some RFT snows. I have a set in 17's. Just send Dan@United or Tischer a PM and ask about prices. BMW offers a wheel/tire combo complete with TPMS.

it's the only make with the oe tire dimensions. it is pricey but looks bang on and excellent snow traction. I will be investing in these myself in a few months

Lots of tires in the /40 profile, stock is /35. Is that going to cause any problems?

Also I don't need runflats necessarily if it saves me some $$.
