CSL reps

[sd_dracula]

Where can I get a set of decent 18" CSL reps and which brand/make to go for?
UK would be ideal since I'm in Ireland.

Get 19 inch reps

the 18/19 debate is tiring. Some stick to their guns about 19 being too big blah blah blah.

(IMO, if you're going to do it, do it properly and go for 19"s. Save your current wheels for the winter and everyone's a winner )

As for the 'best' reps, depends on your budget...

CM wheels is in dungannon, he will do you a good deal..

Yes I know the whole 18/19 fight is ongoing. I have a friend with the same car as me with 19s. Hate the ride/love the look. Roads are too bad for 19s in here hence the 18s.
BMautosport seem to do some staggered 18": http://www.bmautosport.co.uk/showroom/product_info.php/new-spoke-alloys-hyper-silver-deeper-look-wider-rear-p-169?cPath=51_27_134_46_297

Anyone here have them?
What tyres would you run at the rear for them?

Yeah I used Chris at CM Wheels. Cracking bloke, great price and first class service.

Also recommend paying a bit more for decent rubber. Chris got me a great deal on some Toyo Proxes which are astonishingly good in the wet and the dry.

That looks fantastic.

Is that on coilovers?

Make sure you get ones with the right offset. I had 19" reps on my Z4 when I bought it and the front rubbed on full lock, and the rears had really stretched tyres and still rubbed over big bumps. The car also drives MUCH nicer on the 18" MV2s I have now, far less harsh, the difference is amazing!

H&R springs, 35 mm drop.
When you get the right wheel offset the stance looks perfect with H&R's. No rubbing and not too bumpy as the tyres absorb some energy on 18's.
