Black CLS wheels

Bigmactime · 06-13-2015, 07:00 PM

Hey guys,

I have a 2008 E92 M3 and I love the look of the black CLS wheels but the price for the OEMs are a bit steep. There are a ton of aftermarket ones that are far less expensive.

Is there a huge difference? Any recommendations?

Thanks

avant garde M359 is just as good as oem...

Did you mean CSL wheels? Not trying to be pedantic here, but the E92 was never offered in a CSL version. You'll probably have better luck searching with the correct option codes.

The wheels you're referring to are probably the competition package wheels, which were part of the ZCP package. The BMW OEM wheel code is 359M. If you search around, you can find a lot of wheels that are similar. The Avant Garde wheels Tony mentioned, for example. Apex ARC-8 wheels are also an incredibly popular alternative.

Maybe he means the Mercedes Benz CSL rims?

Op probably came from e46 platform thinking zcp is the same as csl even though csl never came in black

No harm, no foul

Yeah, no worries. It's just a lot easier to find parts if you know the codes

Thanks guys, I'm thinking about the 359M. Avant garde looks like a good alternative.

Any other alternatives?

Apex ARC-8.
