I bought my coupe with style 32s already on. TBH, I wasn't 100% sure if I liked them or not and I'm still toying with the idea of going back to 108s - which in my opinion look awesome on a coupe. I like originality too. Having said all that, I really am coming round to the idea of the 32s...

The car definitely looks better on the staggered 18s. The smaller, narrower wheels work well with winter tyres and the extra inch of rubber helps with rough winter roads.

Jamie had a set of 32's from a 7 series on his and they looked well with the deep dish..

I always use bmwstylewheels.com lists all styles, what cars they were on, and widths, weights and offsets. Very useful 😀

I do like the deeper dish, but played safe and went for E46 wheels which always fit a Z4
