Subject: Tire options on older BMW model...
Auto repair rookie here.  Need to replace a few tires on my 1989 BMW
325is.   Current tire size is P205-50Z-R15 on high performance
Fittipaldi rims (original BMW rims replaced by previous owner).

I just want to replace with basic tires (no need anymore for high
performance tires given how old the car is)  but not sure if I have any
flexibility.  I know the 15 refers to the rim size so, if I want to
keep the same rim, this is not something that I cannot change.  Does
the 50 refers to the rim witdh (and therefore something else that I
don't have the option of modifying)?

In brief, do I have to replace with exactly and exclusively the same
P205-50Z-R15?  These all seem to be pretty expensive!  Which I had a
more traditional rim size...

Andre
