It's all personal opinion of course, but I think the 19" wheels look too big on a Z4M, especially the roadster but I think the Z4 in general is overwheeled on 19" rims.

My personal opinion is that you need a big car for 19" wheels to work. Otherwise it all begins to look a bit 'chav' for me.

The CSL reps look good but as a wheel design not as a wheel size in relation to the car. I did see some 18" CSL style wheels on a Z4MC and thought they looked really good.

That all said, my personal opinion is that the standard wheels look good particularly painted black if that goes with the colour of the car. I have an Imola Red Z4MC and am thinking of painting my 224M wheels satin black rather than going for 19" wheels.

I kind of get you, Nickw666... I like the stocks and got an Imola Red Roadster.

I think spacers would just fill it out more and that would be enough. I definitely dont want to make it something ‘chavvy’. I don’t like black wheels though :?

Just out of interest for those who've had a non M Zed on 19s and now an M on them. How does the ride compare? Is the M comfier than the normal zeds on 19s (both on non runflats) or are things pretty similar?

These are M359 19" wheels from E92 competition pack. No more perfect fitment/offset exists - I still can't believe they don't rub ever!

Owww, they look really nice. A slightly bronze colour would look great with my carbon black body colour.

Thanks mate! Yeah I had these refurbed in the shadow chrome colour but part of me wishes I'd gone with a slightly bronze tint.
