: I just purchased a very clean 85 m635 from original owner importer w/all records. Still has TRX tires and original silver 3 pc BBS rims. I'd like to swap the wheels and tires, do I go 17 or 18" and which width? Any tire choice that is a good compromise dry/wet. Car will never see snow. Interested to see what has been successful.

Well Gentlemen all who say nay to 17' i say don't knock them until you try them. I agree how ever they should be light weight. I have a 85 635csi which i have 17' MSW and Yokohama Tires from the Tire Rack. These guys really take the time to get you what you want. Their product knowledge is second to none. I went w/a grey this time around, it was just the touch the car needed, added cornering you would not believe, and took nothing from the ride,not to mention the eye appeal that a 15'or a 16'just can't duplicate.
