should have some pics. I have 4 BMW wheels with winter tyres for sale or swap

basically good condition been in the garage for a while time to get rid. They need a clean but seem basically ok as do the tyres .
For the avoidance of doubt and for the benefit of my wife, not everything I may say here will be absolutely true I may on ocassion embellish a little for effect.
That said when it comes to motorbikes, I like to ride side saddle with a nice frock

Hope you shift them but as I have found the only way to use a BMW in the snow is to leave it on the drive and take the MX5 instead, at least a car the size of a roller skate is a lot easier to control than an £10,000 sledge.

With the mazda I am used to the backend always wanting to be at the front.

Harley Davidson....the most efficient way to turn petrol into noise without the embarrassing by-product of horsepower..

Which models do they fit?
Would they fit a 2010 123D?
The standard wheels on mine are -
17" x 7" with Eagle NCT Run flats on the front, and
17" x 7 1/2" ditto on the rear.
The 16" wheels should not be a problem, although I had been thinking of considering possibly buying 2 x 17" wheels and running winter run flats on the back only.

On the one hand John (squid) I can believe it was you but on the other I can't believe no one else realised :smt002 but that said I am not a scouser thoguh I did live there for a while so no they are not off that BMW ! :smt003

Howard not sure whichi model they came off the markings I can see are in nthe photos and I would guess they have some indication of fit but i will go look later in case I missed something

remember the tyres will fit other models as I got them for the 406 coupe before I killed that.... hmnnn seeing a pattern developing here :smt017
