POLL: What is your favourite Z4 Alloy Wheel

[Argyll Andy]

You’ll find all BMW wheels and info about them in here

http://www.bmwstylewheels.com/

Wish I had known about that site when I did the poll !!!

Yes it’s a good site as it gives you the images and numbers but you can also click on a wheel style and it gives all the different variants and models it fits. That’s why I’d said the 276 only shows for the E89 as it doesn’t give any other variants whereas you pick something like a 311 and you’d have to be very specific you got the right wheel for your car

I also like you can choose by vehicle model to show factory fit

Style 9 - mine came with these and they look really nice, but having said that I now have some CSL-style alloys on mine (which I love). I keep meaning to get my 326s refurbed and onto eBay. I wonder if I can get them refurbed during lockdown?

So I thought my car had 326M but after looking at this thread I've realised I don't...

Anybody know what style these are?

I think they are 437M wheel design as fitted to M3/M4. 19" x 9" 235/35/19 front, and 19" x 10" 265/30/19 rear. Really wide!
I don't believe the standard tyres from the M4 will fit. But I have seen these fitted to an E89 Z4. Awesome wheel. Probably really expensive too.

SimpleCarGuy on YouTube has a video on fitting and tyres.

I voted for the 326s, but would be tempted by the 276s if I changed. My main gripe (apart from the cracking fear) is how hard they are to clean...nightmare to get in between the spoke even with a toothbrush and the wheels off :roll:

I would have voted for 230s, but they weren't on the list of options so I went for 295s instead!

The 326M are nice rims but I actually prefer the 296 which is one of the two that I voted for, saying that if I was to change rims I'd go aftermarket something a bit different. Problem is some of the better looking not to common rims are big bucks!

I heard a rumour the 326M rim was improved by BMW in 2012. I have not been able to substantiate that claim though anywhere though.
Hopefully, someone else might be able to offer a little clarity and how to identify model/part numbers if that is true. It would make sourcing used rims a little safer. Seems a refubished set is going to cost around £1500.

Interesting.
I've got them on my Dec 2012 car. Currently on 37k miles on RFT. No issues to date
Hope that's not tempted fate :wink:
