Considering changing the alloys on my Z4, I think csl wheels look awesome but are there any cheaper alternatives with the same style?

Can't go wrong w CSL's in my view, and replica's do the same job as OEM CSL, as we all know.

Probably stating the obvious here but I went for CSL replicas ( not on my Z4 ) just be careful of the weight of the wheels as they can be much heavier than originals . Hope you find what you are looking for .

My car came fitted with 19" CSL Reps that are exactly the same sizes and offsets as Genuine CSLs.

I've bought a set of 224s that I will be fitting once they've been refurbed and had new tyres fitted which is a bit lockdown dependant, but then my Reps will be going up for sale.

I've added a photo so you can see how they look.

I've just fitted hyper silver csl reps from CM wheels on mine. Awesome value for money, the paint finish is a little questionable mind you but overall they're a great wheel.

I've yet to see an example of that..?
My 19" CSL reps (BM Autosport) were actually lighter then my OEM 18"...
