2 questions
1) Did you cut the original antenna or get the smaller bmw original antenna ? 2) 19's give you a hard time for riding the car, is that the reason you switch to 18's ? By the way 18's look good too.. 5 spoke design rims always look perfect on bmw cars.. |

I would certainly like to have done a back to back test with the 18" wheels (my Z4 has 19's). The 19's can at times feel a bit harsh and crash over uneven road surfaces and you do hear a lot of road noise. They look superb , but they really are style over function!

I just borrowed them from a friend of mine. So iI dont have any more pictures on Z4. I dont know f the order came tru today, but hope to have them next week. Will post some more pictures next week. One car we have for sales has them http://www.finn.no/finn/car/object?finnkode=17228006 Regarding the antenna I just took the old one of and pulled of the plastic top. Then I cut it down as high as i wanted to. Had to make the "pole" a litte smaller/thinner but that was easy. Sorry for bad english. Say so if you dont understand!

To be honest I like the rims with which you ordered the car with way better. They suit the design of the Z4 more. But to be honest I never liked these wheels (230). On the E92/93 I would prefer the 189 design (18-inch) above the 230's (19-inch). But lucky everyones taste differs cause else we were all driving the same car. Would be quit boring!

The short antenna work fine. I just cut it of. I shall test it out on a long trip this weekend. @richard in NC: I agree a littel bit, but they guys at work wouldent let me do it. I also wonder if it would se a littel but stupid. Becauce it is not on the hold front so you would see the eges very good!
