Hi All

I think I'm finally settling on a set of Lenso BSX rims for my E30 Cab so just in the process of getting prices but finding it a little tough to be honest, well at least to beat £525 for the rims only. Anyone know of a decent place to get a set at a competative price? Ideally down in Surrey

195/45 will give a slightly stretch look, i've got these on my car. Correct size is 205/50 or 225/45 IIRC

imsy's you quote 195/45 will give you a slightly stretched look will this not interfere with the ride or is quite normal? as i am just about to buy some Lenso's but unsure what tyres to pair them up with?

cheers

I don't think it causes any problems. It depends on what look you are going for. Stretched tyres for the Euro Look 8)

195/40 is what i have not 195/45 :o:

yep 16's ideally guys, thought about 15's but with the Mtec 2 kit on they just look a touch too small under the wheel arch. Cheers though
