General thoughts on alloys-
Hi all,as im after a set of 16/17 inch alloys with decent tyres,i have been trawling fleabay which has loads obviously,but with that many different types of bmw ones,can i ask what is the general train of thought that would look good on a zed (apart from the usual 108's etc)-there are some decent looking ones for the 1/3 series but then again how would they look on a zed?-thoughts apreciated -thanks

Andy, what about ranski's 107's? have a look in buy/sell section, he has also listed them on ebay. I know they don't have tyres but they are nice
don't go from 16 to another 16 IMO, 17 maybe, 18 definitely the way to go (trying to make you spend more money ).

Re: General thoughts on alloys-
They actually look ok I reckon - is it just my eyes, or do they look staggered (contrary to what the listing says) ?
The rubber looks well used, but I'd be tempted

There's a set of 17" Schnitzer wheels on ebay that don't look to bad and come with tyres.
