CSL's or VMR 715's on AW sedan?

I can't seem to make up my mind and my fiance is not much help( she doesn't like either). I've narrowed it down to the silver CSL from VMR or the 715'sin either silver or hyper black. I have an Alpine White 328xi. I am going non staggered because of the all wheel drive.

What do you guys think?

Silver CSLs

Or

VMR 715 in hyperblack or hyper silver



Heres the thread where VMR showed me a pic of the hyperblack 715 on a white m3......... This thread

VMR 715 hyperblack looks great on the white M3
CSLs looks bigger

I'm not really concerened about which one looks bigger, but good point. I love the way those 715's look on that m3. I may be leaning toward those. Thanks.

Anyone else?

I think CSL looks better...but might be because VMR715s are relatively new...that they still need to grow on me...

I agree. I think the CSL's look better on a black e90, but I still like the way they look on a AW one. I think the lip is what is making me lean towards the 715's.

I just wish I had a better side shot of the 715's on white.

On the AW, IMO I would go Hyperblack 715's cause as much as the Silver looks clean I think the darker finishes look sick against the AW.

That M3 does look sick. I am going the other way though. I ordered super silver with kumhos from jlevi today. Now I have to control myself and wait a little to get them. I may not be able to make it.........I'm known to be a little impatient. Thanks for all the comments, thoughts and help guys!!! Thanks to panerai7 for posting that pick that made up my mind. I'll let you guys know how everything goes with the order.. So far they Nick has been great.


OH yeah I'll post picks when I get them on.
