Mark w Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Jack Can you post exact tyre size please the width and tyre wall both effect the fitting size .I have a couple of sets here i could check Its worth a look on Ebay at the second hand auction sets if no joy here . Easy to sell on when you have finished with them .I have recycled several sets this way . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottR400D Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 I got a set for my 530D from Tyreleader.co.uk for £43 odd. My tyres (winters) are 225/55 17 but I think it's the same model of chain that you need.The quality is fine and given that they'll quite possibly never be used I wouldn't want to pay the price of some of the better, easier fitted ones. These are Weissenfels Tecna M30/13. https://www.tyreleader.co.uk/snow-chain/weissenfels/tecna-m30/13-101 You'd be welcome to borrow mine as long as you don't want them March 5 - 12th when I'll be using them but it hardly seems worth it at that price.

ScottR400D Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 By the way, though it's a .co.uk site it's a German company. My chains arrived in about 4 days though, free delivery, right on time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackb_ms Posted January 19, 2016 Author Share Posted January 19, 2016 Thank you for your kinf offer, but we are driving down for a week skiing about the same time as you*yes*Maybe see you there*byebye* It seems sad to have to spend this kind of money for something which is going to gather dust in the corner of the garage Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottR400D Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 I agree but didn't think £43 was too bad. I remember a few years ago I got stopped down in France without any,l; even though the roads were fine I was escorted to a local supermarket store to buy some. I never used them but they wouldn't fit my current car. From memory they were more than £43!I go down there most years so it's not too costly.
