CSL Wheels

[wjs]

Where would i buy a set of CSL wheels for my Z4MR,are they the same size as standard M wheels. Cheers.

BMW dealers, Simpsons, Thorneys (about £1800-1900)

Or if you want a genuine set for £1200 (A1 conditions) i will be selling mine next week as my new rims are arriving shortly

Is that with tyres ?

Replicas can be had off eBay for £750 with cheapo tyres. Tyres can be upgraded to fslkens/kumhos for about £150 extra. This is for the e46 m3. Not sure about fitment for a Z4. I know these will be heavier than genuine csl's and poorer quality.

I have replica's on my M3.

The quality is poorer, but it's not certainly bad for the price. The paint finish isn't as high quality, and I noticed a couple of casting imperfections up close when waxing them.

With regards to weight, they are not as heavy as some people think.
Mine weigh almost exactly halfway between genuine CSL's, and the OEM polished 19's.

Have you had any issues with balancing them?

They did use more balancing weights than the OEM wheels, but other than that I've had no problem.

I only know that because I asked the tyre fitter the same question out of curiosity. I certainly haven't been aware of any balance issues.

I might be selling my CSL's with tyres (Eagle F1s).
Will know more on Friday.
