Not mine and the tyres would be the wrong size but these look pretty decent:

Falkens would be about £300 for a set, fitted, of 225/55/16.

What size tyres, because I got a set of 5 Vredestein Sportrac 3s a little over a year ago for not much more than £350 (can't remember the exact amount).

I happen to have a spare set of 5 BMW alloys sitting in my garage which would fit an E34, but the tyres aren't much use and ideally the wheels would need a bit of refurbing if looks were important. One of them is a mint, un-used spare though.

This style of wheel:

Take a look on ebay, sounds like you have Metric wheels, the tyres are very expensive and not very good compared to modern tyres.

Did you find some alloys for this, there's plenty of 15" original bbs alloys for sale or you could get some e39 wheels with good tyres off ebay but youll need spigot rings.
