Will My Tyres Fit?

Hi,

I currently have 225/50R16 run flat tyres on my BMW 3 Series 320D E90 (2006) and I am looking to get some new alloys.

I'm looking at getting 16 inch BBS SR Alloys.

They have a width of 7J and an offset of 35 to 48, but is this ok for the size tyres I currently have?

Any helps appreciated, Thanks.

    I think that 7J's will be OK with 225's, but you need to check the offset for your car. The offset relates to the fitment of wheel to car and has no relevance to the tyre itself.

    Just checked in my handbook and 225's can be fitted on 7J up to 8J, but on 16's, 7J is more standard.
