what wheels should I get....

I have a black de-chromed e92 coupe and looking for some new shoes. I have 2 wheels in mind....please help me pick. Or I'll take suggestions. The first pic is the Beyern Mesh and the other is the Linea Corse Z2S.

I think the z2s would look better than the beyern mesh. Linea Corse makes some pretty good looking wheels imo compared to beyern. have you seen the new Linea Corse Dyna's? I just got a set and I love them.

here's a link to look at all the Linea Corse wheels they have. I think they are bang for the buck

It could be the picture but I like the look for the Beyern Mesh on that white E92 better. We carry a full line of Beyern wheels so feel free to contact us for a quote.

I really like the Beyern Mesh design. It's a classic wheel that works well on just about any car. With that said, I would also look into these:

those are sexy they remind me of the 911 997 turbo wheels for some reason.

i like my wheels too - they were well priced, and are very light in an 18"

Enkei RPF1 are really nice too. Light weight and different from most other wheels on BMWs.
I use them for my snow tires.

I have Advan RS for summer, but they're a bit more $.

5mm spacer front and 10mm spacer rear. My snows weigh 45lbs each with 225/40-18. My wife's 16" RFT stock wheels weigh 54lbs each!
Great track wheel fro sure running 245/40-18 slicks.

I guess I am in the minority here as well and I would say Beyerns. We are somewhat local to you (Dallas) so if you'd like to deal local then give us a shout!

The OP did say they would take suggestions, so here is one....Alloy Technic B9 forged

Forged and lightweight, but of course a bit more expensive than the OP's choice. I would take these in a gloss charcoal on debadged black. 18.5 lbs front and 19.6 rear

If your car is slammed, I would say the black.

However, if you have just a mild drop or aren't lowered at all, the silver would be a better choice
