15x7 Tyre recommendation's and sense check
Posted: Thu Mar 28, 2024 1:55 pm
HI All,
I've managed to purchase an original set of BBS RA 15x7 rims for my 323i. I understand the optimum tyres for this are 195/50 front and 205/50 rear to avoid fouling any steering components.
Will these tyres fit on 7j wide rims?
My reason for asking is I have found Toyo Proxes TR1's in the correct sizes, but on their site they state the recommended rim width as 6 and 6.5.

I wanted to check if these tyre sizes are suitable for the rims I have.
And any other tyre recommendations for these sizes would be welcome!
Thanks,
Kam
