My Ride: 2006 White 530xi
I am currently working on installing 2006 330xi 18" style 162 wheels on my 2006 530xi. Most people say 275/35/18 tire requires at least a 9" rim, although some have done it, its not recommended. Chris

Thanks guys!
CWS530 - I too have 124's like your sig pic! I recently bought 2x 275/35/18 tyres and wondered if they would fit my wheels or if I'd have to get new wheels! I'm glad you guys replied, I feel a bit better now!
