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

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