CSL or BBS LM? Make your vote=)

Should I keep my BBS LM or get CSL reps? I had CSL reps on my e46 m3 so when I got this car, I wanted to go for a new look so I went with BBS LM since those are the two best looking wheels on these cars. For some weird reason, after having the look of the LM for about a bit over a month, I miss the concavity of the CSL. What do you guys think?

I have a Black Sapphire Metallic E92.

I think everyone might be picking bbs lm because they have the impression I have the real lms and trying to step down to csl reps. I meant style wise because they will be reps. I have bbs lm reps now and thinking about going back to csl reps. Sorry for the confusion.

If we are talking original BBS LMs, then that's a no brainer- LMs. If we are talking reps, then CSL.

Yeah, if they're original BBS Lm's like Nick and everybody else said, I would easily keep those. Though CSL's do look good, I still like the look of a original LM wheel

Placed my vote on CSLs, I don't hate it at all. As long as the concavity is there and the offsets are close to aggressive, I will rock another set of CSLs in matte black!!!

Well that's a completely different story.
You never said LM Reps. But you did say CSL reps.
I voted for BBS LMs but when you put it that way, I take my vote back.
I prefer the CSL Reps over LM Reps.
