How many CSL style options are there?!?

Duck360198 · 07-05-2011, 08:36 PM

When the right Z4M has been chosen, I know that I want to swap the wheels out for CSL style wheels. Can anyone help me determine which manufacturer is the best? I like the OEM ZCP's, but they're heavy, no?

I'm looking for a bit more aggression, good concavity (front and rear), and an offset that will not require spacers. I'm looking for great weight, great quality, and the best bang for the buck.

The car will more than likely retain the stock suspension. I don't know if that makes a difference or not, but just an FYI.

Any suggestions??

Thanks in advance for the help! I really appreciate it.

OK, well I just found this thread: http://www.zpost.com/forums/showthread.php?t=491923

THat will be a great start. I guess I was just expecting to see it in the Wheels & Tires forum. This will keep me busy for awhile.

Definitely a good start with that thread. That shows a lot of the CSL and CSL like options. I think in terms of the actual CSL replicas, most come from VMR, and other places like EAS buy from VMR and can sometimes offer custom colors or exclusive finishes. The only other CSL replica I have seen that wasn't from VMR was from eurowheelspro.com.

Also, if you like the V710 style, it is actually a "replica" of an HRE wheel that is pretty sweet. Personally I think the V710 looks better on the E85/E86 than the CSL reps do.

Actually that thread was a little disappointing. I thought there were going to be more results as there are certainly more companies out there that produce CSL style wheels...I just can't think of all of them.

^alufelgen is another company that manufactures almost exact replicas of oem csl wheels, right down to the stamped lettering etc.

search ebay, you'll get a lot of results too

scour the classifieds and sponsor sections to get a good starting point. that's what i did. I posted the CSL thread in the pics thread since it would be laden with pictures instead of putting it in the wheel thread.

Here's a few more you might not know about:

Avant Garde M310
Miro CSL Style
Aluflugen CS7

By far the VB3 by VMR seem to be the most abundant.

Also, stated in the above thread CSL reps have 8 double-spokes, not 7 such as the VMR 710s. They look GREAT but not true reps.
