So I have swapped over my 108's to a lovely set of MV2s.. IMHO I much prefer the MV2's but I realise they it's very much down to personal taste.... I've put the 108's on a well known auction site :D but let me know if anyone's interested then feel free to get in touch.

Personally I'm not a fan of the 108s; I know people like them for their lightness plus they were unique to the Z4, but I'm not a fan of thin-designed wheels - I prefer my wheels to have a bit of chunkiness to them (ex E55 AMG with monoblock alloys owner here :D ).

My car had MV2s on it when I bought it; recently swapped them for 107s which is what i wanted all along. The MV2s grew on me though.

I've had both - the biggest drawback with MV2s is when you wash the car! :roll:

Personally cant stand the 108s. Mv2 look much better on the e85!

Funny, I'm the opposite - MV2 are way too common. However, my newly refurbished 108s inevitably corrode, I might swap to 107s :)

Gotta love 107's, but I am a little biased! :D

If I'm honest I would have probably kept the 108s on the car but the quotes I was getting for refurbing them were crazy and the stories I've read about DIY refurbs scared me senseless and that was the final nail in the 108 coffin... But as I said at the very beginning.. Its personal preference.... Saying that I think the 108s look really good on the coupe!.. As the Kinks said... "It's a mixed-up, muddled-up, shook-up world"

I think the 108s do look good when they are in prestine condition. The corrosion is always a worry. MV2s are nice too, just a bit of pain to clean between the spokes.

Not a fan of MV2s- they are too common and non z specific . The 108s look better on your car imho.

I think the Car looks much better on the 108's. I'd be interested in buying your set. How much would you be after?
