Unless you need the cash, like to suggest considering to keeping them for whenever you may come to sell, as often you wouldn’t get too much more with CSL’s fitted, whereas selling CSL’s separately with a car in org spec would yield more... just a thought.

Looks more like Anthracite or Gun metal than Black?

Maybe true if they were OEM silver... but not as black IMO

Yes sorry was in autopilot - definitely anthracite.

If they don't sell i'm more than happy to keep them for the time being.

Nice set of wheels Chris. I'm interested, but a bit concerned about the tyre sizes. Can I ask a dummies question?

I'm a noobie so please forgive me. If I'm not mistaken the OE size for a Z4 (non M model) is 225/40/18 at the front and 255/35/18 at the rear. Yours, having 45 series at the front and 40 at the rear has a bit more side wall. This obviously fits your Z4M, but did this cause any rubbing issues? Would these be a straight fit onto a 3.0Si ?

You also have the added reassurance since they're not new tyres (so already slightly smaller in overall diameter).
Then when you're down to wear indicators you can always switch back to OEM sizes :)

Perfect - sounds like the guys answered your questions for me :)

I have to say, since fitting the CSL's its made me realise how much better these felt on the road!

Hummmm - I was about to invest in new rubber for my new 19”ers.

I think I’ll wait till next year, see if I like the ride then go from there

Is there any chance you'd be able to measure the inside diameter of these please?
I'm just trying to figure out if they'll clear my brakes!

I saw a pic on here the other day of an E89 with 224s.
Not sure on the model or exactly where on the forum it was though.
