235x35 & 265x30

No problems with ride & a lot better than the run flats.

As for the wheels themselves Caveat Emptor

Not good quality?

What do people do in terms of a spare/contingency when ditching run flats?

I like the finish of these reps over OEM, more glossy!

You also saw the good side of my car, the other side the rims are battered from being squeezed by an arctic lorry. Was too late to get on the kerb!!

As for not having run flats, few bottles of slime & small compressor.

What's up with the wheels?

[Piggin]

The 405M's are cheap for a reason.
Only had them on the car for 3 months & then had the black wheels.

Ah, I thought you meant the VFs.

Looks stunning.

I'm due to collect a GC in CB in a few days and I can see it looking like yours with 2 extra doors!

Do you get your car washed local garage ?

they use some acid straight on wheel which does that to chrome of alloys , i never let them use that unless then wash alloys first with water and then use that and i never had any of my alloys croded or blistered .

Always washed the car myself & use auto finesse products on the car. Never used a wheel cleaner just a fresh bucket of the same shampoo I use on the car paint work. So can't see it being a chemical reaction

Did you get tyres as well through BM Autosport?

No, as I already had the tyres from the 405M's
However, I believe they do some very competitive packages

probably bad batch .

did you give the alloys back to company ?
how long after did it start happening ?
