Stock Runflats

Just picked up my new e93 and was wondering if anyone was willing to purchase 4 brand new Potenza runflat tires ( less than 150 miles). I'm looking to get rid of them as soon as possible so I can pick up some new wheels and tires. Looking at around $700 for all of the tires. Keep in mind that they are around $270 for fronts and $325 for rears without tax or shipping online or at a discount tire store.


Alex.

Are these for the sport package wheels? & what did you do with your E92? Also if you are getting new wheels and tires why don't you try to sell the wheels & tires at the same time?

Well, in truth this is my parents car, and I still have my e92. I informed them about runflats and they decided that they wanted to get rid of the tires pronto and invest in some new ones. Thought that they would take the plunge and get some new wheels as well but they love to rock all the stock parts so new wheels is out of the question. Anyway they car is secondary and isn't driven much, these are BRAND SPANKING new SPORT PACKAGE tires ( I believe 225 in the front and 255 om the rear) .

That's a good price! Do you need special equipment to install them, like the Michelin PAX tires (for other cars)?

Not gonna lie, this is a once in a lifetime price.

About your question though. These tires will fit anything and I don't think you need any special equipment to install them, but you may want to ask someone who's more educated in the tire department.
