My Ride: Bmw 530d 2004
Now after two days of random driving around, I can only repeat myself.
I was afraid of ride comfort getting harsh when upgrading from 18" to 19", but no way.
The ride is even smoother than before. How can that be? Maybe brand new tires make it.
I did have some vibration problems with my previous set at first, but they were solved after numerous balancing jobs
and special hubcentric rings I ordered from a workshop.
I think I never buy a cheap replica wheel anymore and only prefer perfect fitting.
Oh yeah, these wheels are made in Germany by Rondell. Model 0049. And the price was just right
