I wonder if anyone can help. I have a standard 318i, not a lux, but the previous owner put 15inch BBS alloys on. I have heard that the wheels bow out, because they are not the right size for the car.
Any advice would be gratefully received.
Thanks
Sam

If they are your average 15" BBS this wont happen!!! They should fit the car spot on .

15" BBS alloys were an option for your car from new. If you look at the tyre pressure sticker in the front door opening, you will see it covers the 205/55 X 15 tyres that fit your wheels.
