20 Inch Replicas

Picture as promised!

I have upgraded my stock style 210 255/18 to style 239 275/40/20 315/35/20 replicas with yoko's (non run flat) . The ride is so much nicer than the runflats even considering they are 2 sizes bigger!

They look fantastic. RFT's are terrible. Give me regular tires and a spare, thank you very much. I hate the RFT's on my E90. They really ruin what is an excellent ride.

What are you doing to prepare for a flat tire?

We are lucky in Australia that if we do not have third row seat then the spare tire is standard, so problem solved!

Just curious if anyone knows. If I were to run with non-run flats without a spare and got a flat. Would there be any problems with road side assitance towing the car for free to a dealers?

How much did it cost you to get rims? and where did you purchase them?

Actually, it is the same in the US. This is one of the main reasons I didn't get the third row seats. I'm getting rid of my run flats and wanted a spare.

X5mad, those style 210 wheels look great
