Well, I think the new ones look nice and will look nice on your car.

I agree (with VailM3), I do not even like the CSL style wheels on the E9x M3. Especially with your color and body-style I would go with something more elegant / modern / expensive looking. Such as a replica of the 6-series multi-spoke wheels in the right size (if available).

Both are nice. The turbine wheels will be very difficult to keep clean. I have 293 wheels and keep the spoke and inside hubs clean is a monumental task. I find myself clean them after every drive to keep up with the dust.

I do not like wheels with lips on almost any "luxury brand" cars, but I cant explain why... I would choose "m-style" concave over "aplina-style" concave over straight over wheels with lips for a Z4...
But I also think that the normal antenna looks better than any stubby antennas I have seen, so I know my opinion does not always represent the greater majority. |

I have the VMR710 18" and the gap between the tire and the fender look too big. I like to lower the suspension to reduce the gap, but I don't think I will spend the $$$ to do that. |

It is only $270 for the H&R Springs, =] not too bad for the appearance enhancement
