17 inch alloys for E30

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I'm thinking of buying a set of 17" BK racing BK171's (Alpina replica's)with 205/40 17 tyres, any recommendations for places that do good deals for a set? Also what's the guide for tyre pressures? Is there a formula to calculate the correct pressure that would use the standard tyre's (205/55 15) pressure as a starting point?

Cheers

Steve

	Hi Steve I bought my 17" Alpina Reps with 205/40 17 Toyo Proxes for �650 (incl fitting and balancing) from Mike Stokes Motorsport in Bournemouth. I was supposed to get Falken tyres but as I had to wait a while (over a month!), they sorted me out with the Proxy T1s, the wheels aren't BK's but AP Motorsport, but still look the dog's, got the original Alpina Centre Badges on them as well (from a mate)! Sorry haven't got a number for Mike Stokes Motorsport. Hope this helps.
