Question

Just bought Replica M6 Moven wheels...they are actually made in taiwan....much cheaper if you buy them from the manufacturer!!hehe




can any one give me advice on the tires on these rims....the front is 8.5 19" with offset of 15 and the rear is 9.5 19" eith offset of 22...what tires should i use to avoid rubbing should i use the usual 245/35/19 with 275/30/19?

.....im currently using the non sport 530i.....oh and feel free to comment on the wheels if they look like OEM or not....both positive and negative comments are welcome!

Nice wheels! Eager to see them on your car.

So did you actually buy them directly from the manufacturer? Do you have contact info for the manufacturer in Taiwan?

The issue is vibration and it'll drive you nuts.
For tire size, please search around on the forum and you'll find it.
I was about to buy 167 replica,but vibration issue holds me back.
