You're welcome for the info, but I merely compiled it, the majority came from this board.

I don't know of anyone who is running a 215/55-16. Either go with a 225/50 or a 205/55 if you're doing a 16" wheel, and a 215/60 would be good for a 15" wheel.

The type of wheel is a matter of opinion, but I chose the 16x8 BBS RK for the light weight.

FYI, if you're going to post a response to a thread, do so in the thread, not as a NEW post to the board. A new post for everything would eliminate the reason for having threads and would make the board hard to read. As I'm sure you already know by now, give your post at least a day before you ask again.

Shawn, Thanks for the OVERWHELMING amount of info on the Zip....

If you were going to put new wheels on a 535is, what would you go for? I'm considering Ronal LV's in a 16 x 7.5, with Potenza so-3's in a 215/55/16, or BBS RX.

Would the car handle better with 15's with a 215/60/15?

your opinion would be appreciated!

You can email me direct at billtaylor58@earthlink.net
