You will find some on here, there are pics a Silver roadster with polished 19" and a red ///M with black 18" rims IIRC, but you need to search :wink:

as above, there are pictures of a black roadster with m3 rims on, and i have to admit i wasnt keen at first but the more images i have seen the more i love them on the z4. especially the wide rear wheel with the concave spokes - looks great.

That was one of them, the other is a yank, two silver Z4's on a driveway one had 19" M3 rims.

Make sure they are not the ones I returned to Hotline Motorsports (aka alloy wheels direct, performance alloy's etc) Had major problems with the wheels and the worst customer service I have ever experienced. I noticed they have relisted them back on ebay. Beware!

as i have already commented in that post, that grey Z4 with those 19" m3 alloys looks great. I think the 18" versions look too small. in my opinion of course. no offence 'roadtrip'.

My 2 pennies... I think Roadtrips look better - a sort of 'dirty' look. I think 19s on the roadster are verging on too big - obviously not specced by BMW. Would work better in California or Miami - not in Kent.

I went for the hardcore/race look and am really pleased with it.

I understand they're not for everyone and thats fine.

Other benefits are that it maintains the original size/weight setup, and 18" tyres are cheaper

Ali_b, those wheels look awesome on the Z4C....far superior to the standard M wheels which IMO let the car down greatly!
