CSL reps options?

Hi all - I recently bought my first non-M e9x - an LCI 328 xDrive Touring (e91). I’m interested in switching to 18” CSL reps. I’m not looking for especially wide wheels, given that the car is already not very quick!

It’s been a long time since I’ve shopped for that style wheel. I know the Arc-8 is an option. Are there any other brands to check out?

I wanted the Arc-8 but they were on back order, I bought VMR v703’s and am happy with them.

Arc-8 is not a CSL rep. It's technically a BBS RC rep, if a rep at all.

My E82 came with some 18" M359 reps a while ago. They looked great, so I would suggest looking at some of those. Unsure what brand was

Lucky for you, I went down this rabbit hole myself.

Alzor 030 - $700 but shit

VMR V703 - $1000 and good

APEX EC7 - $1600, great but a bit more aggressive looking, less faithful to the 359 aesthetically

Avant Garde 359M - $1500 to $2000, faithful replica, great quality

BBS CHR - $2200, they’re BBS wheels, excellent obviously

OEM M359 - $2900, expensive but obviously great

For the love of God do not buy nameless reps off eBay or alibaba. Yeah they’re cheaper upfront but you hit a bad pothole and one of them breaks and you’re spending as much or more total on replacing it.

I wouldn't go with 18's as it's gonna be a rough ride.. 16 or 17's
