They do look good. Any pics of the 10" rear on an e90? Those looked much more concave than these. One more question. Why doesnt a wheel retailer/producer make a rear 9.5" wheel with HUGE concavity? Max it out at much as possible? DO you realize how many people would buy these or a similar style wheel with huge concavity in the rear? Just curious and I am not complaning about your CSL because those are the best looking set of reps I have EVER seen. You rim color is much more accurate also to the real deal. There are many out there where the finish/color is off from the original CSL. Great job.

I have to wait till tomorrow to make full judgement on concavity. Im still spoiled from the remarkable concavity of the vs8. The oem ones dont concave very very deep either so these really look spot on. Nice job guys. now to decide between these or the hyperblack dynas.

As far as the concavity the rim width and offset play a big role in concavity. This is the largest concavity the CSL wheel design will allow on a 9.5ET30. We did a lot of FEA and a slight increase in spoke curvature will cause the wheel to fail our VIA/JWL testings. So this is the maximum certifiable concavity the CSL design could have. On a different design though we can certainly produce a HUGE concavity

Our finish is powder OEM silver which is more elegant and more accurate to the OEM CSL. The others us hyper silver which makes the wheel look off.

LOL same exact thought crossed my mind when I saw the pics

FotiosF90M5 · 03-17-2009, 04:04 PM

I wish mine came mounted with tires. I have a feeling ill be lazy and just leave the dynas on for a while. the whole idea is to try both and decide which I like better. laziness can be a killer.

Sal@AUTOcouture · 03-17-2009, 04:38 PM

2 on one side and 2 on the other

Here are some quick pictures I took in my garage. I am running Goodyear F1 Asymmetric 235/35/19 front and 275/30/19 rear. They look great. One thing I really notice is that we focused on the rears so much but there is a huge difference in the fronts.

Sal@AUTOcouture · 03-19-2009, 03:32 PM

Thats how the fronts look on the real ZCPs...

I really like them. It's just a huge improvement over the VMR CSL wheels I had before and something that wasn't really talked about before.

Garth · 03-19-2009, 04:09 PM

How did they balance?
Any close up pics?

Nice, they look great. They really do have an OEM look to them. I'm interested in the balancing also.
