Which tires should I fit to a 1974 BMW E9?
Automatically reviewed answer
Hello, For a 1974 BMW E9, I would start with the tire specification in the vehicle documentation or original handbook, then choose tires compatible with the wheels and the required load index and speed rating. Before changing tire size or wheels, seek advice from BMW or a tire specialist, because handling and wheel clearances must be considered. If the wheels have been changed, I would have a tire specialist verify the combination before buying. If the car is used infrequently, also check the existing tires for aging: they can need replacement before the tread wears out. Could you share the full tire-size marking, whether the wheels are original, and whether you drive only in summer or also in winter?
