Help with tire selection

I need some help.....

My 2004 MCS with 16" V-spoke and original run flats are ready for a change. I was thinking of keeping the 16" wheels for snow tires.

Next I want to buy new wheels, 17" maybe, for the other 3 seasons.

I am a normal driver looking for performance and smoother ride than the run flats give.

Any suggestions?

See here http://www.mini2.com/forum/faq.php?f...factory_wheels


As to offset and all that. just go to tirerack.com, fill in your specs, and they will show you all the wheels and tires that fit. When you get serious, call Alex and he will help you.
