This is a genuine BMW michelin Alpin A3, part number 85 45 2 535 078. The number stamped on the part is 85452535078; BMW's catalog files it under the short number 2535078. You will find it on our Instruments & Electronics shelf, under Stark-marked tyre Philippsburg.
It fits every E36 body style (318i, 318ti, 320i, 323i and 325i, 1992–1999), with the M40, M42, M43, M44, M50 or M52 engines — and the European-market versions.
BMW draws it on 2 diagrams, among them Winter tyre (85_0018) and Winter tyre (85_0087). BMW's catalog calls for four of these at each place it is fitted.
