Anyone know the correct tracking setup for a 280i?

I've just started running 225-50-15's if that makes any difference.

Also, what pressures would you reccomend for the above tyres?

Cheers.

Bob.

The tyres are on 390SE wheels which are wider than the standard 280i ones and allow for a lower profile tyre.

Although the tyres and rims are wider, the overall diameter is exactly the same as standard spec.

I believe the tyres are the correct size for the wheels.

Does this sound OK to you Steve?

Cheers Ian!

Hopefully these figures work on a 280 as well as a 390.

Do you have any problems with your tyres? (see above)

I have noticed the big ones on the front seem to be causing a bit of tramlining. (I'm currently at 26 PSI).

I may switch to something thinner.
