Tough choice...I like them both. But if you throw in a choice for BBS CH reps then my favor would fall to the BBS camp

I don't really like the look of those particular BBS LM replicas so I voted for CSL.

I'd vote for CSL reps.

Why?

Because they don't weight that much and they actually LOOK like the real CSL's they are copying.

All of the BBS LM reps I've seen either look like a cheap knock-off, or are mad heavy like the Rials.

There are these by Rial Racing, the Daytona's. Look extremely similar to LM's and also have a stepped lip. But I hear they are really heavy.

Both equally awful, the e90 needs thicker spokes like the stock ZSP 18's

I've studied pics of Luff Replica LM's and CSL replicas reaallll close, and real hard.

Authentic BBS LMs are the best looking wheels for the E90 PERIOD.
These luffs, however, look like crap when you see enlarged pics.

CSL Replicas are truer to the real CSL wheels from what I've seen, and look better than Luff's.
