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 :)
 
this is all i see when i see Mv2s

107s are the way to go 8)
 
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?
 
I have a set of 108's which need a refurb front tyres are good while rears are about 1mm off the wear bars but I have nothing else to put on the car and would ideally like 107's if anyone is interested in a swap but I am willing to consider anything 18" which is a staggered set and will fit, the 108's hold good tyre pressure so the joints aren't leaking, the outer rims have flaked off plating and are slightly kerbed hence the need for a refurb.

I live near Derby so quite central for location and I have jacks etc so wheels can be swapped on the drive.
