One thing I also notices was that the lip on the OEM is an straight angled lip, while yours are much more curved. Is that going to be fixed as well?

Maybe its just me or the angle of those pics, but it seems like the OEM is a little more straight lipped...

We will. I believe the popularity of the M5 wheel has been obstructed by the lack of a good rep.

We have many projects before a 18" wheel. But we`ll offer it for sure.

It is the angle. They are both identical.

Alufelgen...could be something wrong in your signature address...15841 Pines Blvd #272 Ft. Lauderdale,FL 33025...
15841 Pines Blvd #272 Pembrokes Pines,FL 33027..isn't? If so I lived blocks away from your WH.

We are determined to make this the BEST csl reps out there.

We have been playing with it for the past few hours and the ET30 on the rear wheel is requiring a change in the hub position and not a change in the wheel backspacing so this limits us on spoke design. We`ll play around a bit more and try it to get it as close as possible since the offset is not allowing us to make it 100% the same. So far we are 99.5%

AluFelgen - I guess you've noticed that there are some pretty 'particular' BMW owners on here who'll settle for nothing less that near perfection.... perfection being imposible to attain I guess (by some standards)

From what I've seen you've hit the nail on the head with a top quality and best looking CSL Rep to date and given that you've had to take into account off-sets for 9x vehicles.

Top job!
