Z4MC with other M car wheels - picture thread ?

[graeme4130]

I've had a hankering for a Z4M Coupe for a while now and some recent man maths puts me in a position to start looking soon
I'll be honest, I'm not totally sold on the looks of the standard alloys and I've never been a fan of non OEM aftermarket alloys for upgrades. However, I've seen the m3 CSL alloys are very popular and certainly look good on the car, so I've got a couple of questions ;

Firstly, how much should I expect to pay for the CSL alloys as I can't seem to find any for sale and are they a straight swap ?,

Secondly, do any of the other M car wheels suit the Z4MC too and does anyone have any pictures (ie with E90 M3 wheels or similar) ?

Cheers in advance for your advice

CSLs will set you back from about £1000 for non-perfect alloys only, to £2600 for a brand new set with Pilot Supersports. The pop up now & then on ebay, Z4-Forum and M3-Cutters. They will fit a Z4MC without any issues, unless you go for too wide a tyre on the front/back.

I quite like the old M-Parallels from the e34 M5 - but they may look too close to OEM Z4MC alloys for your liking, and they're as difficult to find.

I have always liked the look of the M6 alloys on the ZC. But the offset is all wrong, so I guess they are usually replicas.

They're available in different widths/offsets depending whether they came from e34, e38 or e39s.

The original ones are from an e34 M5 (M parallel type 37), and are 8JX18 ET20 front and 9JX18 ET22 rear.
