These or these!?
Lame thread I know, but of the two which one would you chose? I'm on the fence and need to pull the trigger soon.

From what I understand and have read is that ESM makes a quality wheel. I still on the fence, the ESM from what I have read would be best on a 40 series tire becasue of the offset, and I'm not sure I want a 40 series becasue I dont likt the look of a small tire.

The link to the Ebay auction was for-
17x8 17x9 17" LM Wheels Rims 5X120 ESM Style 004 BMW E36 E46 Z3
Were you just using the picture or were you going with those wheel widths?
The ESM is OK. Weight is likely not light. The LM rep would be harder to keep clean.
The BBS CV looks cleaner and more like a MINI OEM wheel.
It's likely stronger than the ESM wheel. Also not a light wheel.
wheel size listed is 17x7.5" et38mm which is OK with either
205/45-17 which is OEM sized.
Or 215/45-17 but this is taller than OEM and OK on stock suspension. Likely smoother riding due to taller sidewall.
