I run 195/60x14" Bridgstone tires on 6J14 e-30 rims BMW styling part 
No:36-11-1-125-688 - no rubbing, just a great ride!

I tested the odometer on my daily route against electronic reading from my 
e-36. The 318i clocked 8.0 km while the tii showed 4.9 miles, i.e. 7.9 km. 
which I consider to be within the error margin.

cheers, Miro
