Hi Guys,

Thanks to everyone who has helped with ET and wheel sizes over the last 2 days.

The big question now is what colour CSL do I want, can i have to opinions and possible photos?

cheers all :driving:
 
Not got any pics but if buying CSL's OEM silver is the only option if you ask me. Blacks/Gunmetals have been done to death and don't can get lost in certain colours.
 
I do like the OME silver and see what you mean.

I read somewhere on here that copied wheels are not a good idea mate as they are not engineered as well as the proper ones

+1 on the Silver, but then again I'm not a fan of wheels in black or gunmetal, especially CSL's.
 
I had this issue and decided to stay oem because its the best of both world looks shiny when a bit dirty and they keep the BMW oem look.

I really don't like dark wheels they get lost in the wheel arch and then when they get even slightly dirty they loose their shine. I had gloss black on my mini Cs and I had gunmetal grey on my 224s and really disliked both unless perfectly clean so silver I would say is the better choice.

OEM silver is the only way to go in my opinion. Don't need any fancy colours, they are a work of art already!
 
I just bought a set and will be keeping them OEM. beedub's darker CSLs looked pretty good against Ti Silver - probably the exception to the rule though.
 
OEM Silver for me
