New alloys, which ones?

Post by Whizo » Thu Jun 25, 2015 2:10 pm

Hi guys

I was having a quick look at the different alloys you can get for the Z4. I know a lot of people use the CSL or M6 wheels but I was after something a little different. I found a photo of a Z4 with wheels called Forged 1 Five Split Deep Concave. I managed to find a UK supplier, and they cost an amazing £1500 per wheel, so that’s £6000 for a set of 4 without tyres! So that’s out the question. I looked at some Bretyon Race GTS wheels, the same wheels that are on the silver Z4 that is in the youtube videos demonstrating the SmartTop module. The cost for a set of 4 is more reasonable.

I was wondering what wheels others on here recommend, I want to stay with 19”, maybe even go for 20” if they don’t look too big for the car, any suggestions guys?

try mark at http://www.bmautosport.co.uk
or higher end rims (also check specials) http://projexuk.com/
or http://www.rimstyle.com
rtec are based in hatfield - also worth checking out if you're local

my last few sets have been from mark but they're reps albeit good ones. depends on your budget too

i personally think too much compromise in form over function in 20s but thats my opinion
hope that helps :thumbsup:
