To be honest, the seller got straight back to me. Young lad and those were on it when he bought it a few years back. He said his Dad agreed with me, but sadly he doesn't have the originals.

Always happy to help if I can.

If the forum helped you, why not help the forum back. Thats the Z4 way! :thumbsup:

Wheels like that seem popular these days, but I'm getting on a bit and really don't like them. :oops:

But even for those that do, they just don't look right on a 15 year old Z4!

It’s probably just me but the fact that there 19in makes them look even worse. I agree they could look good on the right car, the Z4 isn’t it.

Only worth their weight in a weigh in at a pikey metal yard. Lots of new cars seem to be on this design and all look rubbish. Later Skoda Octavia VRS look rubbish as well. Luckily my mate found one with earlier wheels which look a lot better. As said, 'wheels maketh a car'....................

The wheels and exhaust tips need to go. Otherwise, it doesn't look bad? Top looks in great condition.
