BBS LM or CSL Replicas?

Ms_Kady · 05-30-2006, 11:13 PM

What do you guys think of these wheels? I love both of them on the e46 and think they would look as good on the e90. I'd go with 19". I have a more conservative style than most, but would like some opinions. Any other wheel suggestions are appreciated. TIA!

CSL Replicas with a silver finish.

The LM's would be black with a polished lip.

u realise the giant price difference (about 3 grand) and why not oem csl?? dont get me wrong i love the lm though

foofighter · 05-30-2006, 11:14 PM

i know that black centers are the rage now...but personally leave the centers natural...these are LM's for gosh sakes...keep it unadultrated. IMHO

diesel007 · 05-30-2006, 11:18 PM

uh LM's...

shimshimhada · 05-30-2006, 11:18 PM

LMs are hot. Second on the one color though.

EVO_S4 · 05-30-2006, 11:19 PM

if you dont care about the price difference, LM all the way no brainer

Yes, I do know the price difference.

I would go with the black center because my car is black. It's a bit more aggressive, but I like it.

diesel007 · 05-30-2006, 11:22 PM

LM in silver, just look up NIM's car he has that setup.

Ms_Kady · 05-30-2006, 11:29 PM

The other option is Work VS-SX, but they will take longer to save for.

If you have some time (and bandwidth) on your hands to browse through a lengthy thread of aftermarket wheels photos :

Thank you.

Seems like an odd question to ask to compare the two. If you have the money, why even consider the CSL reps? Why not the LM's or the real CSL's? It's like asking weather you should buy the dress from Saks or Ross. I vote for Saks!

foofighter · 05-30-2006, 11:40 PM

VS-SX is more expensive than LM's? I did not know that

Hunter399 · 05-30-2006, 11:49 PM

LMs=HOTTT

Ms_Kady · 05-30-2006, 11:53 PM

I suck at this wheel thing. Sorry guys.

shimshimhada · 05-30-2006, 11:55 PM

Well, ultimately it's your car and your style.

I am pretty sure the LM is more

ep609 · 05-31-2006, 03:00 AM

if you have about 1100 bucks/a wheel then take the LM's of course!!

The LM's are fooookinnnnn SIIIIIIIIIIIIIICKKKKKKKKKKKKK

ep609 · 05-31-2006, 05:12 AM

yes they are

would someone give me money?

aapriadi · 05-31-2006, 09:00 AM

gold LMs, it'll look sick...no u wont be an sti-wannabe either..
or the Luff replica of LMs..
i too didnt know that Work wheels cost a lot but get it if u want, its all up to u

tl_boy · 05-31-2006, 09:24 AM

The LM's are undisputably (to me) the best looking wheel for E90 PERIOD. 19" silver LM's on an E90 are a 10/10.

Works may be lighter, but won't look as good as the LMs. Most users here would probably gladly take LM's, only problem is price.

.

Compared to CSL replicas? thats a funny comparison. On one hand, you have the cheapest decent look wheel on the market for the E90, on the other hand, you have one of the most expensive. A little over 1 BBS LM wheel only will get you a complete CSL Replica package with all four tires and wheels.

Get the LM's, then get the best wheel locks in the market.
