I'm using 15" on my '87 535iS and it seems to be a good compromise. 205/60-15 tires are not the ultimate in handling but they aren't bad if you get the right tire. They seem to ride better than the lower profile tires. The roads can be pretty crappy here in Houston so I also felt that I was getting a little better rim protection with the 60 profile.

: Hi!

: I currently own a 1985 528e with the stock 14" bottle cap wheels. I bought the car last December so I've only had it for 4 months. I'm thinking about upgrading to 15" or 16" wheels in the near future, so what is the best way to go?

: Thanks in advance!
