An 'is' on 296's

That's unusual.

Thanks very much chaps. Tough choice on the wheels but the 296's have always been a favourite. Don't regret picking them.

The wife rents a barn office at Pilsley off the estate costing 16k a year so I reckon a quick pic off the main drag wouldn't hurt Grumpyowl.. :wink:

Great looking car, e89 looks awesome in black you you chose the best wheels. They look classy and not blingy as some of them do. :thumbsup:

I agree the 296's do look great but the early ones had problems with cracks on the run flats (as did other styles). Check my 326m's regularly and no problems so far and the recent compound changes on Bridgestone RF's has helped. I'll be interested how they go as would defenetly have them on mine. Great pics!

This is my problem with most wheels for the Z4... they look like bling rather than something more sophisticated & subtle.

Very nice. Not seen this combination with the wheels. Looks good I must say.

Thanks chaps. :thumbsup:

Which wheels have you got tecathy?

Interesting point on the run flats obs-com, when did they change the compound out of interest?
