    Just look at almost EVERYTHING BMW has made for the five series and
    What the fuck are you saying? You've proven nothing. You're wheel choices are either those of a sad, ignorant and misinformed retard or a troll. Take your pick.

        like I said earlier--I am not here argue my taste. I still stand by my math.

        Fidhle--The world DOES NOT revolve around your taste.
        This is my car for me to decide what I want to do.
        you are just making yourself look like an ass.
        Quit trolling this thread.

            price point--

            Found for 117.00 each-roughly 500ish a set.

            250ish for spare rear set.

            Almost as inexpensive as a Sportmax--better built, & 5-lug. I guess after all the guff, I have decided.

                      put 205/55/15 as your stock tire

                      then put your silly and wrong tire sizes in the other fields, click compare and you will see how far you are off.

                      225/50/16 is 1.0' too big
                      245/50/16 is 1.8' too big

                          And to be honest--I don`t understand what you mean by trolling.

                          your math is off---

                          45% of 245mm =110mm

                          50% of 205mm=102.5mm

                          difference of 7.5mm

                          10mm=1cm

                          10mm=1cm>7.5mm

                          102.5mm from 122.5mm is 20mm==

                          20mm x .03937=.7874inches

                          rounded to 3/4 of an inch sidewall difference

                          reallly??

                          it really is hard to accept?

                          205/50/15

                          205 x .03937=8.0+15=23.0 wheel dia with tire

                          23.0 from 25.6=2.6/2=1.3 additional inches when measuring from centerline.

                          I am not going to argue my taste or lack of in some eyes, but my math is correct.

                          when you confirm select the wheel veiw option as well. shows compared veiw on grid backround.

                              I think I am going to get one side in chrome--onside in black. The passenger side in, chrome, and driver in black.

                                Of course being home schooled I think you were neglected in the math area. Hate your parents not me.
