CSL Alloys - possible to buy brand new?
They are cast and then flow formed, so a bit of a hybrid approach.
Still not particularly light but, as above, a good improvement on the 224s. I've had mine since new and one surprise has been just how good the factory finish is. The rears are nearly perfect still after 20k miles.

€1,499.00 for the set of original CSL alloys. Check their website.
Hope this helps

P.S. In the end I decided not to buy them: too many CSL (and CSL-style) wheels and too much money for just a cosmetic change. They do look nice though

CSL Alloys - possible to buy brand new?
I purchased a set from my local BMW dealership last week over here in Ireland.
Mind you, I had a CSL that they previously looked after and had to use that chassis number to process the order with them.
€2k

Hey,
I am in Ireland too (Dublin). Where are you based? It would be good to meet up (when possible)...

I believe Harry Fairbairn is the cheapest for CSL wheels in the UK.

CSL Alloys - possible to buy brand new?
There is only one front wheel available (not even a set) in the worldwide BMW network, and there is only 1 set of rears available in the BMW UK network.
I have had discussions with various dealers who are of the opinion that CSLs are/soon to be NLA.
Leebmann24 are also of the opinion that the wheels are/soon to be NLA.
To make matters worse BBS (the manufacturers) are currently filing for insolvency, but are expected to be bailed out and for production to be continued - https://www.forbes.com/sites/michaeltay ... 2b986a3949
However, one particular dealer I am in talks with confirmed that BMW is sourcing another supplier and the wheels could be available from the end of August this year.

CSL Alloys - possible to buy brand new?
A Z4M coupe's owner that I know in Germany (I also enabled the M-Track modus on his Z4M) was buying some weeks before a second set of CSL alloys (8,5x19 + 9,5x19) as backup.
He heard also that it will be soon not longer available.

I just got a set from the Werksrader eBay site due to the lack of BMW availability and no word on a new batch being produced.
My local BMW dealer had quoted £1800 inc VAT for a set and that was with a trade discount applied. I had my reservations with the Werksrader listing due to the price but can confirm they are 100% genuine and came well boxed.

Yes it is still possible to buy the CSL alloys as new parts by BMW.
