Ended up testing 21" Styling 312's that I had on my E65 last summer. Damn, they look good.


Since I have two new 275/30 tires already, I ordered 235/35 for the front (245/35 in picture which is too big for my taste). Next step is to think what wheels to get for my E65.

And put my 20" set for f10 on sale.

235/35 and 275/30 are still kinda tall for F10 but close to M5 265/35R20.

I’m using 275/35-20 square on my f10. The taller tire means a better ride, less chance of pothole damage, and it fills the fenders with less lowering so the car looks like it’s been lowered more than it has.

If you used 245/30 and 275/25 on 21” wheels to keep the diameter the same as stock your wheels would get bent just looking at them.

255/30R21 and 295/25R21 would be close match to stock tire size. But 275/30R21 did not look too bad so we will go with that and 235/35R21 front, when they arrive. It is very rare size but managed to find it from norway.

Beautiful Ride! Love the color.
btw, IND will sand down & paint match those front reflectors.
The quality of their craftsmanship is outstanding.

HA HA HA! Gotta love the brutal honesty from kids!

One time my little brother said to Dad "How come you don't drive sideways like cousin Denny does?".
