They were concave CSL reps, absolutely stunning!

In other words they'd suffer badly in the winter months with the salt & shit on the roads that you get here,which in the longer term could ruin such a wheel,so only really a fair weather type of wheel.

Apart from the above,there a tad too bling for me

Cool thanks for the thoughts and they somewhat echo some of mine. I'm not too sure on the polished lip too but they are available in other colours. I'd probably seal then straight away with some alloy sealant anyway to try to protect them and if they got too bad I could always get them powder coated or something instead as I have a very good alloy wheel guy close by.

I agree they do look a bit bling which is why I am keen to see them in the metal to see what they really look like. Just after something that pops out a little bit more.

I'm struggling against CSL reps but I'm going to end up with them aren't I?

Not if you're dead set against them, no.

Apologies if you've already mentioned it,what wheels do you currently have?What colour is your car?

18" 189 OE wheels and car is a space grey E93.

Not dead set against the CSL's, just hoping try something a little bit different and with a bit more wow. I know it's not a F&F Nova but if I'm splashing out for some new wheels, I want them to stand out a bit. CSL's while lovely are just a tinsy bit too boring\safe IMO.

Just watched the video makkan posted.

So would the Eibach sport system plus be too much of a firm ride? I have got 17" non rft tires, 225 45 17, and would like to improve the handling, especially body roll.
