FWIW genuine ones are always 19", which only leaves you with Reps that will be aftermarket!

My e85 3.0si was definetly on 18’s staggered from factory, even door sticker support that.

True, 3.0Si were on 18” staggered from factory (or bog standard 17” square).
Mr Tidy was saying genuine CSLs are 19”. I would hazard a guess that he misread your question :roll:

Yes, I did mean genuine CSLs are 19s - apologies for any confusion. :oops:

If you want OE staggered 18s here's a set for sale:- viewtopic.php?t=143993

Probably a more sensible choice as refurbing 108s can get expensive because to do them properly they need to be split, and some of the bolts will inevitably break! I think they are Titanium and cost about £5 each, so with 20 on each wheel cost can quickly escalate. :o

My only issue with MV2s is they are hard work to clean, and they were also fitted to Sport model E46 3 Series.

I sold the 108s on my previous Coupe while they were still in pretty good condition and fitted a set of Style 295 E89 wheels that were also staggered 18s, but with much more aggressive offsets so they filled the arches much better.

My 108s need refurbed and are currently sat in the garage gathering dust.
I was quoted £650 to refurb but that was only one quote.....I may get it cheaper.

With the cost of refurb, I didn't think a set requiring refurb would be worth much.

To be fair that set doesn’t need much refurbing. The centres look in excellent condition, just the rims need a polish. An easy and satisfying DIY project assuming they split OK.

That’s a lot. It’s about £100 each for split rims around here.

Simon Ireland on Facebook is the man to go to. He usually has several sets for sale at reasonable prices.
