I just ran into the metric rim issue. After working my way through all the options and in a moment of sheer desperation I called America's tires here in the south bay. I explained my problem to the manager and he told me he just pulled a set of 15inch rims off a newer BMW. If I got there soon he would make me a deal. I was out of the parking lot before he hung up the phone. To make a long story short I got 4 15" rims from an unknown year BMW (standard type with one piece twist on/off cover over the entire bolt pattern). They fit perfectly and he mounted a set of General V rated 22060R15s to them. I was out the door for under $500. Did I get the deal I think I did? Does anyone know what year these rims are.


Probably a deal, but hard to say what model BMW without knowing what the wheels look like. You sure about those 220 MM width tires?? Are they 225MM's??

Nevertheless, if they work and you're happy, its a deal!!
