CSL Wheels & Tyres

[Pazza]

Still looking and still in the market for some new alloys for my e86. Had a good look at the offering on BMautosport saw some nice ones but difficult to gauge what they would look like on my Titan Silver e86. Is there a thread or gallery of after market wheels that someone has put together? My current wheels (108) are in great nick but I want a fresher more modern look.

Thanks Mr Tidy - I’ll take a look, i quite like yours are they the 224 on 18” also I coming round to the mv2 (135) I know that are quite common on the e86 and also on many other BMW’s but they still look classy and modern.

 

[Mr Tidy]

Yes, my current one has 224s. They have slightly different offsets so they sit a bit further out in the arches on the non-M models.

My first Coupe had 135s. I didn't dislike them, until they needed cleaning!

Possibly a silly question but have you seen this? https://z4-forum.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=147401

Yes i saw that one but I want to keep to 18” rims.

I’ve seen these18” CSL replica’s on ebay https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/364033634572 Anyone got experience on these and will it be a straight swap from my current 108 without any modifications, I am planning to have them on Michelin Pilot sport tyres.

Finally decided on these https://www.bmautosport.co.uk/new-18-riva-fox-dtm-csl-alloy-wheels-finished-in-silver-deeper-look-wider-rears with Mich PS5 to replace my 108’s with Bridgestone runflats. Does anyone know what size is the centre cap?

I am going for this look https://freeimage.host/i/img-2283.d9lbYWG
