I agree that the gunmetal looks great, I think sixspeed is doing a great job at setting trends

As for price: as listed on the website (depends on the tires).
As for time: it took about a 10 days to have them delivered to Seattle from the time I ordered them as I recall. Tom provided AMAZINGLY good customer service too!
As for tires: yep - I got them with tires.

Can't comment on **********s as I haven't dealt with them.

Hope that helps!

Did you weigh them? There is some discussion about the weight being higher than quoted.

Nope - I didn't. They were shipped with the tires mounted and balanced, so I really didn't have the opportunity.

I think the 18" size is nice compromise in keeping the ride the same and keeping the replacement tire costs down. Only upside 19" has is for looks it seems.

Roland your car looks great and that wheel pattern in certain pictures look like 19".

I have bought aluminum pedals from **********s.
The items came in Bimmian box and seems like they are just distributor who don't stock much. If you can find direct source of the wheels it may be cheaper.

...

I almost went with 19", but elected to stay 18" for the reasons you cite plus I felt that that little bit more sidewall will help me not get bent rims when hitting potholes

We're exclusive on the Gunmetal & Matte Black color - and carry all colors in stock for immediate shipment. Local customers can even drop by our facility to see the wheels in person.

Most wheel-only orders leave within 1 business day, wheel/tire orders are shortly thereafter.

Roland,

Your MZ4 turned out awesome with the color combo - a few people have commented on the overall look.

I'd say they're pretty dead on:



The 19x8.5" will be 0.5lb lighter. An important factor would be tire choice, which plays in overall wheel weight.

Hopefully, this puts the rumors to rest.

Tom -thanks!

[Hawkeye]

Stupid question probably, but if I get some with the tires already balanced and everything, will I have to do anything special to get my TPMS is working?

[kav]

I don't understand why so many people are reporting heavier weights than we are seeing here. Is there more than one group actually making these replicas? BTW these quoted weights are actually about 1lbs lighter than the actual CSL rims.

I have to admit they do look great!

Likely started from using bathroom or uncalibrated scales when making the claims. The VMR reps are what they claim.

We can install new TPMS sensors for you, which will be fully compatible with your system.

[BimmerZealot]

How much are the TPMS ?

[Zeddy4Me]

I got my TPMS for $200... I know the CSL reps are made by MIRO and VELOCITY...
