Wheels are awful. Old ones were so much better imo.

Amazing car tho.

everyone has different taste and opinion, but i cant see how these wheels look awful. They are not the typical mesh design you see on every bmw coupe, and that was what i was trying to do. in comparison they are 2 very different designs that both look great and highlight the cars' design differently.

They might be a high quality wheel but again, my opinion, just not keen on them. The original CSL style is enough not to be OEM and look unique.

Just don't think they suit the car at all, 1st image is a million times better.

If we were all the same it would be a boring place :thumbsup:
 
i also had dark wheels when i first got the car. i thought they were perfect when i first got them and began to dislike the dark finish. now i would never get a dark wheel because i find they lack detail from a distance. next wheel i will try a five spoke split which are more reminiscent of the oem design. current ones are simular in shape to the BBS FI which is pretty popular as a lightweight monoblock for numerous bmw models

in terms of quality, both sets are forged and lightweight. only difference is that one is a 3 piece to incorporate 2 finishes instead of just one

I agree on the dark wheels, they disappear into the car, a car with black wheels looks like it has no wheels. I did like your shadow chrome CSL reps and I was very close to changing mine to get a similar look, but I think the first set of Morr CSL style are the balls. The ultimate CSL imo, being forged too, seriously cool.

The current ones, they just look a bit out of place, their design characteristics are opposing to the car.
 
Always a fan of the car - but i'm with tomscott, i prefer the sharp lines of the forged CSL style. On silver I definitely think the lighter colour looks better too.

What's next?:)
 
Sorry to say I prefer the older wheels too, but it's your car so go with what you like.

Love it anyway. Tit Silver is the best colour :thumbsup:
 
i like the 3 piece style of the new wheels... never noticed that before... my own preference would to have that style with a couple of more spokes.

Must be easy to clean the new wheels though being so spaced out :thumbsup:
 
Well I think your current wheels are absolutely fantastic and suit the silver car really well, even if I am in a minority. Mine is 28m not 28k - go drive it a bit more, you never know what tomorrow holds!
