CSL vs. Neez QD7
I may get flamed for this but what is the difference between these two types of wheels? It looks like the QC7's look more concaved is this true? I plan on running staggered for the 1ner and want to go with 19's if they fit if not 18's. I know the CSL reps weigh a hair under 25 lb, what do the QD7's weigh? I love he Neez wheels but I also heard they cost and arm and a leg too.

Quality of the finish, softer and heavier.... So in the long run you might have wheels that are chipping, bent and things like that... I am not saying that it will happen, but chances are high, especially with some many people complaining about replicas... But they are cheap.

*** whoops - i missed the "actual" part of your post - sorry! Plus, wouldn't genuine CSL rims have completely wrong offsets for the 1-er?***
look to be about $750 a set for our 18" fitment. Great looking, decent price, but 24# a rim is heavy in my book (miata/mini world). I LOVE the look, I don't know if i can deal with that weight. we will see..... |

Well this is all going to depend on how heavy the stock setup will be. Stock setup maybe very heavy like a 335 with Sport package (Style 189). Also say on avg. 20 lb per wheel for Neez QD7 or Morr VS7 so your looking at 80 lb + Rubber but you can get a much cheaper price with the CSL Rep's at roughly 25 lb heavier total. Does it really make sense to spend 1-2 grand more to save a total of roughly 25 lb? Also VMR is coming out with a new forged line of wheels too. http://forum.e46fanatics.com/showthread.php?t=484865 |

losing a bit of weight in the cabin is nowhere near the same as having similar weight savings in the wheels/tires/brakediscs.

Now if you wanna buy some ZCP's (the US version of CSL wheels, though slightly different spec wise) Tischer BMW is the ticket. I dunno if 4 fronts would fit the 1 series, but they would look sick for sure. ![]() Those are really nice... never seen nor heard of that company before. Some what similar to RAC's... which are like the holy grail in my book ![]() ![]() |
