Matte black BBS CH-Rs on Z4M Roadster, 19".
Hey everybody. These are about my favorite wheels of all time, but I didn't put them on my Roadster at the start due to cost. Unfortunately, I blew out one of my Linea Corse LC818s last week, and wasn't able to find a replacement (until this weekend, which was of course too late). I went ahead and purchased some brand new BBS CH-Rs in 19x8.5 et32 and 19x10.5 et25, with Continental Extreme Contact DWs in sizes 235/35/19 and 275/30/19.
I absolutely HATED the chrome ring that come with these wheels, so the first thing I did this morning was remove them. What a PITA. Took me about 2 hours and 3 bottles of goop-off to remove all the adhesive. I finally got all that goop off however, and absolutely LOVE the wheels now. The LC818s were nice of course, but these just scream quality, so I couldn't be happier. As well, a nice bonus were the 275/30/19 Contis. They look really, really wide in the back! (I'm lowered on H&R coils too of course, in case you wanted to know) Well anyway, here are some pics I just took. Let me know what you think, I hadn't seen another Z4M with these wheels on them so we can add this to the database! Last edited by NickyC; 02-07-2017 at 04:17 PM.. |

That looks the part. I have the same wheels on my IB z4mc but in silver.

I like the CH-Rs a lot better, thinner spokes and all. Both are sure nice though! |

Looks great
Any fender work required to fit those rears? I was going to get these a few years back but chickened out because I wasn't sure if fenders would needed to be rolled to fit the 10.5" wide wheels. Ultimately went with the 9.5" wide CI-R instead. I have those same 275 Conti's, but your 10.5" wheel makes those Conti's look super wide

Yeah, that was a nice bonus with the stretched tire look a bit in the back. Definitely look closer to a 285/295, and are noticeably wide than the 275 Hankooks I had on previously. |

I'm probably over dramatizing this, but all was instantly well once I got rid of the rings. What a PITA it was however, even heating them up the adhesive with the heat gun didn't help much! All that worked was a ton of scrubbing and lots of goop-off. |

I actually don't mind having the ring on my platinum finish - hopefully, the rim of the wheels won't take too much of a beating during tire changes. I believed that was the intent of the ring - to prevent the wheel finish from getting marred during tire changes. |

I have these on my 1 series daily driver...was going to pick up a set for the M Coupe too but was scared the 10.5" ET 25 on 275 tire would be a bit too much. BUT LOOKS GREAT. You look lowered, any rub? Fender mod? |
