Hello everyone,
Just wanted to pose a message to everyone. I have a 94 325iCa (e36) and its time for new tires. Recently I began researching the different aspects of tires and sizes. I wanted to do the standard +2 size upgrade. The manufactures recommend size for my car is 205/60/15, however I would like to go with a tire that is 225/50/15 or 215/50/15. I just called Tirerack to get pricing and more tire info and the sales person ended our phone call by stating that the combo is "unsellable" for my application, citing some weight and load issues. Has anyone else experienced this before? Would running a 50 series tire ruin the car and tires like the tirenazi suggested? Anyone else running Dunlop on an e36?, do you like’em

MK
