Another wheel question

My MV2 are in a bad way and as a refurb is about £80 a wheel thought I would go for new
Love Zs with CSL style wheels but getting a bit common now IMHO so may go for VRM copies
18/8 front 18/9 rears ET 35 all round should fit OK I think they do do ET 40 for the front would that be better?

My Z is a black 06 3.0si think the silver is the way to go

It depends how much further out you want the wheels to protrude over stock. The lower the offset the further out they will be positioned. You are only talking 5mm difference either way. If you go et40 you will be 7mm further out, et35 12mm.
 
predictably with 2 choices you will have 2 answers......I like Silver bling wheels on dark cars. Those wheels are cades somethings berns i think though not VRM's.

I have done a mountain of research on wheels for Z4's and all be it i want staggered fitment for an M, i must have looked at every Y spoke available in the UK, i now have wheel fatigue.

Black looks great IMO :thumbsup:

No go for silver

This is mine with genuine CSL's i picked up at the weekend. Currently being refurbed in silver.

you can't see the design of the wheel in black which defeats the point.

Silver for me, but have you seen these on rimstyle, BBS SR's, they are on offer at the moment as they are a winter wheel, only 18/8 though so no staggered set up but gorgeous non the less and at £769 for BBS is a steal

Yes i did love them but as you said they don't come in a staggered set up :(
Cheaper alternative is fox MS007

But again not staggered

What about bm autosport for replica's?

I was tempted to changing my VMR's earlier in the year... But tempted to get them refurbed instead.

You don't need a staggered set up, many advantages to not having them too, cheaper tyres, you can rotate them, quieter and with less tramlining. They just don't look as good as 255 when looking behind the car and hopefully you don't do that, that often :D
