Just got myself a dirt cheap E28 as a runabout. Wasn't even looking for one, just sort of stumbled across it when browsing through auto trader and thought I'd go and see it out of curiosity more than anything. Anyway, to cut a long story short I ended up buying it as it's mint and has only got 74K on the clock (was owned by some old bloke for the last 10 years). But I didn't notice (until I had a blowout on the way home :rolleyes: ) that it's still running on the original metric wheels and tyres :mad: Metric tyres are a nightmare to find and are ridiculously priced, so can anyone tell me what's the imperial equivalent of a 200/60/390 metric tyre, and the correct width for 15 or 16 inch wheels? I can find BMW alloys pretty cheap but I need to know the right size. Thanks a lot.
