New owner - 405m wheels - Tyre Q

Hi everybody

Just picked up my brand new 120d msport xdrive, Must say really happy with the car especially how solid it's been considering up in Scotland we have been under snow for the past fortnight. Due to the weather not really been able to drive it the way i would have liked to

Anyway i have begun tinkering with things already and having just fitted the black performance grill decided i needed some new wheels lol managed to pick up some 405m wheels which look absolutely stunning.

Being an absolute noob i'm just wondering if anybody can advise me on which specific tire sizes i should be looking to put on the car and if there are any specific makes you guys can recommend

Helps appreciated and i'll try and pop some pics up once it gets a good clean

Congrats on the awesome rims!!

When I purchased mine, I got given the Pirelli P Zero, which are 225 infront and 235 at the back, if I am not mistaken!!

I'm sure you will be able to find the actual figures online

That's correct. The right sizes are 225/35 front (7.5J) and 245/30 rear (8J). BMW recommends the (OEM) Pirelli P ZERO R19 88Y RSC (the info is from here). More recommendations are here.
