There can't be many Ian. I've only seen 2 Z4C 3.0is, but never another Z4MC.

Mine is Interlagos Blue..

Nice Interlagos Blue one in EVO this month, I trust it was yours Dr.D? Looking good.

I suspect that you'll start a trend with the CSL wheels, no doubt BMW will start offering them as an accessory sooner or later.

It needs the skirts Ian, BMW should have fitted them as standard.

Hi All

Picked her up on Thursday put the CSL's straight on after Ian advised me where to get them from (thanks for that beer) After seeing DR's car on here I had to fit them look sooo good and the PS2'S are superb.

This car really has exceeded my expectations in every way, really looking forward to some good weather now.

Few pic's..

Make sure you set the tyre pressures lower than standard, around 28F/29R seems to be about right. The exhaust and brakes heat up the rear tyres on the Z4MC and increase the pressure by around 6-7psi (from cold to hot) so you need to allow for this when setting the pressures cold. Also the stiffer sidewall of the lower profile 19"ers needs less pressure than the OEM 18"ers.

Thanks for the advise DoctorD I will check the pressures out.

How are finding your car now with the tyre-wheel combo... Great review on your car in Evo as well..
