    yup, you are likely to need hub-centric rings though

    no rings but you do need to run tires that don't bulge out the sides too much or they will rub on the strut, i run 225/55/16 kumho 712's varly quiet cheep and good wet/dry traction
    these are e38 750il 16" rims


    all america wants is cold beer warm cat and a place to take a poop with a door on it

    33 seems to be doing well in my kumho's, other brands/tread/belt designs may like a different pressure
