Afternoon,
Had my 57 plate 535d for a week now and loving every minute so far!
My question is: needs new tyres in a couple thousand miles - car currently has Mich ps2 295's on rear, should I
Replace with same size or go back down to 275's?
Car is mapped to 350 700
thanks

57 plate is a late 2007 registered car.

19 inch spider alloys

295/30/19's Mich PS2's. Should I replace with the same size or go down to the recommended 275 width tyre?

Also can anyone recommend a good mid range tyre? Dont really want to spend 250-300 a tyre.

Thanks

Smithy.

so you have the 172 style rims i assume.
the recommended sizes are:
245/35/r19
275/30/r19

i'd go with the 275 in the rear. they'll probably be cheaper than 295 also.
