Z4M Wheel Decision Help!
Guys
I have used up a set of worry beads trying to find just the right wheel and came down to ZCP look alike's. I have pretty much made up my mind to get either the M359 or M310 From Avante Garde in 18 inch wheel size to remain close to stock. But I found a set of used ZCP's 19 inch at a good price. Would you go with the BMW wheels over aftermarket? Give me a push one way or the other. Thanks

I just put the 359M OEM wheels from my M3 on my M Coupe....but I had to put smaller tires on them. looks pretty good I think! BTW, I do have a nice set of Alufgen's SF-71 wheels for the Z4 if you are interested...(silver)

I am looking for my cake and eat it to. I think I may have found them, I just can't put any money down until I get the car back form the paint shop next week and I see how much I have left on my project. The EC-7's from Apex look to be the trick in the 18 inch wheel size, but they can't promise delivery in early August for sure due to the arrival dates. Light weight, 18's, correct fitment and affordable.
Thanks

Wow, very nice, my car should look as nice once the side skirts are painted and installed. How is the 19 inch ride so far?

Thanks Bolts. Well compared to the 17 inch runflats it came with, the ride is much improved. I've also added koni shocks and eibach springs which might help a little with the ride, not sure. Much smoother over virtually everything. Also visually it completely changes the look of the car with the size increase. Very happy with it . Good luck with your choice in wheels.

Sorry I haven't posted up any pics yet. I do have them mounted and they look fantastic, IMO. It's been so damn hot that I haven't felt like going outside, much less cleaning the car for some decent pics. I will get it done soon as this heat breaks even just a little. Was 104 in the shade at my house today

104! That's hot! I think we were low 90's here. Hope it cools down soon.

Ok, I felt shamed into posting something up, as it's been a few weeks and I've been swamped at work. These were taken as the sun was going down and little effort was put into the scenery, but hopefully you can get an idea of how the Avant Garde M359s look

I am going to hold out for the APEX EC-7's. I got until the 26th to pre buy. If I get them before Zfest, ok, if not well it will be a disappointment but I think the wait will be worth it.
Regards

I think that's a great choice. I was on the fence, and "if" they had been available last month, I would have probably gone with them. I like my M359 style though, so I'm still a happy camper ........... they were available in the exact same size I was looking at for the EC-7 .......... 18x8.5 ET35 F and 18x9.5 ET22 R.

I may see about squeezing a 10 under the rear. I really like your car's color. Might make one suggestion, the reflectors need to go.
Simple reflector stickers over the top give me the all black look, I finally finished the carbon fiber hamburgers tonight too. 1/2 a burger as I call it.
