8.5 or 9.5, i cant remember to be honest.

about the weights, i mean the tiny weights they put on the inside of the rims to align them correctly, when they put the new tires on.

Correct me if I'm wrong but according to me the dimentions should be 235/35/19 on 8.5 inch for the fronts and 265/30/19 on 9.5 inch for the rears. I have a set of BBS CH rims like that (8.5/9.5) and the original 296 rims (8/9) which are on the same dimention of tyres (235/35/19 and 265/30/19) instead of the 225/35/19 and 255/30/19 that BMW delivers the car with. The reason why most people prefer the wider ones is that they are more forgiving on our bad roads and add a little bit of confort and the wheel arches are better filled.

Yep all together, but like I said, the wheels were not balanced correctly. At 250 the whole car would shake, after a quick visit to my local tires guy, they found out the alignment of the weights was all wrong. But it was a quick and easy fix.

Hi, these pictures are no longer available. Is there any chance you could re-upload them to, for example, Imageshack that doesn't delete images.

Regards, and your car is pure sex on wheels!

PS: What are your off-sets?
