Which wheels?

hey guys, im looking to add another set of wheels for my m3. i currently run mille miglia spyders in the winter and oem 19's in the dry months. i am looking into either a set of OEM ZCP (CSL) wheels, OR BBS RGRs both 19s obviously. the oem 19s i have weigh 27.X bls front and 28.X lbs in the rear, so they arent the lightest wheels, even though they are forged. the OEM ZCP wheels weigh 22.X in front and 23.X in back and the BBS RGR weight 20.X in front and 21.X in the rear, so both sets i am looking at will significantly reduce my rotating mass while being a good looking wheel (my two requirements). which set of wheels do u think i should get. basically it come downs to two wheels that are the saem design, just one has a lip, the other is concave. also, one if forged the other is not. which would you pick and why? which do u think looks better? i am going to be doing this sometime in the next month or two but just cannot decide, help me out. thanks.

B.Anderson has a little shameless behaviour in the past
Have you checked out the NEEZ wheels? Forged, strong and very light. I'm really liking the Eurocross style.

yea, ive seen them, but im not going to be tracking my car too too much, maybe a few times a year, and dont think the neez are worth the money for me unles im gonna track much more. the one wheel im actually interested in seeing is the CSL forged reps they are going to be coming out with, just curious as to how quality they are gonna be at 2K a set.

its weird, because ill see the m3 with the CSLs and they look sick, i think the concavity of the wheels fit the fender flares perfectly. then ill see the BBS RGR or RS-GTs and they look good too. im stuck. prob leaning towards the CSL's.

My vote goes to the CSL's. I never really cared for the RGR's looks, although their weight is a plus.


Like you said, concave wheels look really nice on these cars. That's one of the main reason I love my Volks so much.
