Will these fit 205/50/15 tires??? I just got a pair and was wondering. Thanks

Wheel size? width? 15x6, 15x7, etc???

I believe they are 15x7's

15x7's should hold 205's no problem.

The 205/50R15 will fit on the wheel but the tire is about 1" shorter than the OE BMW tires. You end up with more wheel well gap, speedometer and odometer error.

Good point, Jim, I didn't ven consider the overall diameter and speedo accuracy...

you could also try 205/55-15 or 225/50-15 on those 15x7's. They are much closer to the stock rolling diameter of 24.7"....they are both around 24" flat. The benefit is lower sidewall for better handling than the stock 205/60's and better choice in performance sizes. S-03's come in both the above mentioned sizes.

Maybe Jim@Tirerack could give you further advice.

Thanks guys. I just got the tires installed, and they fit pretty well. The only issue is looks. Too big of a wheel gap........oh well.

Falken Azenis only have once size for the 15's, and that's 205/50/15.

yeah, he had the tires laying around and just asked if they'd fit, if I recall correctly...
