17 RFT is standard on e60

It's because the reinforcement was on the tyre wall, so thicker tyre would come with more reinforcement so it would somewhat weight a little bit more.

mark mate, forgot to tell you, if you still have the hologram stickers on the rims, you are entitled
to nitrogen fill up at that Megabox wheel place

new boy- Captain "16inch pussy wheels" Pingy will direct you
that place is a good place to buy wheels, cheaper than the HK side.

(sorry Capt 16, you did say 'bring it on' )
