Mine are knackered now. The fronts are the ones that came with the car and also pretty near to being worn, but budget just extends to rears currently.

They're 225/17/45s.

What would be a good choice for £80-£90 a tyre?

Unless you have fake alloys they should be 255.

However regardless of that VVVRRREEEEDDDEESSSTEEEIINNNN !!!!!!!11111111

I rate them very highly. They suit the E46 sports very very well smile

OP dosen't say he has a sport - standard fitment for E46 coupe 330Ci was 17" alloys with 225/45/R17 W91 front and rear - other options were available, but there's no reason to think the alloys fitted are fakes based on the size.

....if it were a Ci Sport with 18" MV alloys on the other hand.....

Doh, assumed it was a sport.

Still recommend the Vreds though. Falkens 2nd.

Falken 452. Run them for over 20,000 on my 330i Sport. Highly recommended.
