Hey Lads.
Just ordered a set of Beyern Mesh 18x8.5 all round for my 530i.
I have a few options for tyre choice.
I can get the package with Toyo Proxes 4 tyres for $2500.
or for $2750 I can get it with Dunlop Sports Max.
What do you guys think?
Currently I run the OEM Bridgestone runflats, 17inch.

Those are expensive!
Are they runflats? If they are, ditch them out...

My Ride: 2006 525XI, Jet black on Dakota beige. Premium and winter packages. I consider myself a purist and intend to keep my car absolutely stock and shiny. 2008 328I Convertible, Sapphire black on beige interior. Premium package, NAV, iPod adapter. Retired: 2002 325I, Titanium silver on black leather. Premium package. Absolutely stock and proud of it.

Sounds reasonable.
