I recently got myself a set of bbs wheels however,now need your help guys in getting the best tyre set up as the guy at tyre shop looked clueless.

They are a staggered set with front of 17x8.5j and rear 17x10j

I don't mind having a little stretch if it help fit it under arch.

I will be fitting these to my e30 tourer so guys please help me find the best tyre set up
