I've seen a nice offer on wintertires with 18 inch wheels. The seller claims they will fit an E60 but I doubt if the E60 and 645 type wheels are the same???? Offset etc..

thanks for any help.

not sure myself, but try comparing standard E60 18" wheels with the 645i wheels at www.tyrerack.com

Those look pretty good, and seems that they have the Dunlop Sport M3 winter tires on them. What style are those?

Dennis, did they say how much they cost?

My dealer has a set of original BMW style 116 17" with 225/50/17 Continental
Wintercontact TS790's for 1600euros...

Also rang the dealer at Wielcompleet
and asked for an offer on a set 17" winter tyres/wheels - the rims are 745i style 95 look-alikes - but just in 17" format with the mentioned Continental tyres, fitted,
balanced, including BMW wheel center logos and new wheel lugs!
for 1118 euros ( around $930 ) - I think it's a good deal...what do you think?

Enclosed the foto of a 745i with Style 95 rims for your reference....

They are offering it for a 1000 euros but the tiresize is wrong. Instead of 245/40 it is 245/45. So the hight of the sidewall is too high..
