Opinions on these 19" 6 series (replica's) on the Zed?

Hi Guys,

How do you think these wheels would look on the Zed (specifically a sapphire black facelift sport) - everytime I see a set on a 6 series I think they look gorgeous!

Their replicas in e46/e90 fitment - The fronts are 8 x 19 ET40 and the rears are 9 x 19 ET35 so I'm assuming they'd fit?

I think those wheels will complement the Z4 very well. I like them

As for the fitment, I don't know

Great look! Looks exotic. Not sure but probably 35 offset in the front and 45 in the back if you dont have an M?

If I am not mistaken, the stock ETs on the non-M Zs are 47 front and 50 rear. You will need to fiddle a bit with offsets if you decide to go this way.

I will say that this is going to fit like a glove.
I had 9x19 ET44 in front earlier. And 8x19" ET40 will retract 9mm from the outer fender. So you will have more room both on the outer and the inner than I had with my 9x19s.
For the rear 9x19 ET35 will retcract 8mm in comparison to my 10x19 ET40. These do not rub.

So all in all you will be fine with those widths and offsets even if you lower your Z.

Heres a pic of my 9x19" ET44 (also in the rear):


And here is with the 10x19 rears (8,5x19 ET34 in front (it rubs)):



EDIT: Those wheels would look great
