What size tyres?

[Chilli]

Hi all,

Anyone know what size tyres I'd need on a 2005 325ci? Also, is it ok to have run flats on the front, but "normal" ones on the rear?

Many thanks.

Depends on what model it is. Is it a Sport with 18 inch wheels?

And no, its not a good idea to mix runflat and normal. Infact, runflats are not really recommended for the E46 at all.

It is yeah. Ok, thanks. Just been quoted £250 for each rear. Thought that was a bit on th expensive side.

They are £150ish for rear decent tyres (Potenza RE050A, Eagle F1 Assymetric).
