M6 vs. CSL vs. Lemans Wheels

All, I would appreciate any opinions you might have on the 19" wheels I should get on my 335i Le Mans Blue M Sport:

Props to 1Clean335i for the picture I used to photoshop the wheels on.

1) CSL



2) Lemans



3) M6





Thanks everyone.

Tough choice but it's between the CSLs and Lemans. I prefer a concave design for wheels so my vote is for the CSLs. I think the M6s work better on Coupes/Convertibles.

Hmm Lemans looks really sporty and classic to me.

The M6 I like the lines, perhaps it looks better on the coupe.

CSL's are timeless in my opinion.

To hard to decide they all look great!

+1 - Go with the CSLs. M6s do look better on E92/93

I agree; The Pshop wheels look just as good as the CSL's in original photo.
I never liked the styling of LMs. Always looked ugly to me. Yet spending so much time on e46 and now e90 forums I got use to the wheels. I gotta say LMs might not have the prettiest design but they look so damn sporty. LMs make the car look bad ass.
Never thought Id say it but ima have to go with LMs. However, you cannot go wrong with any of them.

I think the CSLs are too classy to pass up.

NOT a fan of the CSL or the M6. I would go with the Lemans or the M3 reps. The CSL everyone has as well as the M6.
