Hi,

I want to install winter tires on my 323i 2007 (E90). My car is equipped with 205/55 R16 Run Flat Tires. I have been offered the following tires and alloy wheels set up. Both sets were installed on a E46 3 series.

1st Choice:
- 4 Alloy Wheels 16" (OEM) w/ ContiWinterContact tires 225/50 R16. The wheels have a 48mm offset.

2nd Choice:
4 Alloy Wheels 16" (Aftermarket) w/ Toyo tires 225/50 R16. The wheels have a 38mm offset.

Should I put them on my E90 or stay away from these combinations? Should I buy E90 wheels with Run Flat Winter tires?

Who could guide me on this? Thanks all for your help.

Denis A.
