Reverting back to 224's - thoughts?

[srhutch]

I would say though that the M3 or CSL wheels are probably more acceptable to others then true aftermarket wheels.

Quite right. Most marques have a heavy OEM+ following.

Fitting CSL's to a bmw of this era is deemend more an upgrade than a modification.

Reason I suggested them Dave is that the coupe's work so well on the CSL's. Just look made to fit.

I prefer the 224s and think they suit the car better than the M3 rims.

They certainly ride a lot, lot better than 19's and I prefer them to the M3 rims too.

Not a fan of M3 rims of Z's so go with the 224's

If you're looking to sell the car in the future then I'd agree that csls would be considered an upgrade as bmw oem - and although common they still look sharp.

Also, either way consider getting a set of eibachs I think that would complete the m3 wheel effect (I think you're on standard springs)

Indeed, not ventured down that path just yet. But it's only a matter of time... And cash.

I like them but CSLs would be even better

Are those CSL's darker than normal?

Looks great Adam

Just brake dust :evil:

OEM pads generate a lot of dust. They are much brighter when freshly washed

Who cares? That car looks awesome, you got a good'un

I really don't like the M3 wheels at all, so in order of looks it would be 224 as the cheapest next best, then CSL for the best on the coupe.

Still never worked out why they look so wrong on silver grey though in roadster form whilst ok in coupe shape.

Do you have spacers on the back and front what you got on if you have ? i really like the 224s myself maby keep the splits for winter

 

[spokes]

No spacers. Really like the look of the 224's but CSL's come a close second IMO.

Looking swell Chris Have you been topping up the polish ? 1st pic ive seen since it went off the drive & barring the plate it looks just as it did when it left

 

[spokes]

I thought I would do my best to keep her looking good. I have to admit I had some help but well worth it

I hope you get some work sorted and get some time for another motor
