Best Rim/Alloy Colour & Style for a Z4 (2006 2.0i)?

s445z · Post by **s445z** » Fri Mar 23, 2012 8:01 pm

Hello all,

I guess im the newest Z4 car owner on this forum today

... I just bought a silver/grey colour Z4 with beige leather interior and I've been thinking of getting it fitted up with some nice rims but I'm not sure which colour or style would best suit my car.. Im looking for suggestions and opinions if you would be kind enough.

I've been checking out a few sites, but the best one I've seen so far is:

And here is a pic of the car... out of the selection which rims would you choose for this car?

Many thanks!

On that colour, dark rims look nice. CSL style maybe?

Sure CSL look pretty good, I guess you mean like this right?

What " would you think suits it best?

It's personal choice, but I'd go really dark. Anthracite dark grey compliments the bodywork.

I was really tempted by ellipsoids in shadow chrome...could go darker on your silver zed...

Having a good look at these vs the 108's...the 108's have that appeal that just has a rightness with car IMHO..

Hi try this link- the 'visualiser' on here will let you look at different rims on your model of car (used by wheel companies to show customers but available to all)
http://wheelwright.co.uk/
It shows AEZ / dots/ dezent /calibre/enzo wheels - great for getting an overview of what they will look like on your motor

How's about the MV2's I had them on my Z4 3.0Si when I bought it . .

AND may be selling

due to having put on some 108's

In my opinion....

108s are the best rims on a roadster
135s (aka MV2s) are best for the sardine can coupe

Stuart, your wheels are totally beautiful, but I'm not sure they would look as good on a non-Alpina

And can you even buy these ? Must be like hen's teeth...

108s all the way, or perhaps M rims, because you can get away with them on a non-M
