    Question BBS or OZ? Opinions needed!

    Finally have enough money to swap out my current wheel setup(selling the 135s to my brother) but I need help choosing between a couple options:
    I'm between BBS CH and OZ Ultraleggera(pictures below)
    Wheels will be fitted onto the ZHP in my signature, keeping in mind that it is TiAg, any ideas on either which ones you prefer/best finishes? I'm trying to move away from the all silver look that I have right now and most likely move to something darker

    OZ Ultraleggera

    BBS! Personally, I don't think the OZ's look right on an E46.

    Oz wheels are somewhat fragile as well.

    Yeah I can see where you're coming from, I've seen them a lot on Subarus and likewise

    I like the BBS between those two. The BBs is not all that light though IIRC, which is too bad as they are not cheap.

    But they are durable as hell. My wheels have taken severe abuse in the previous owner's possession, and I was able to have them fixed without issue. Bends that would have totaled other wheels. Not these... And they're still solid as fawk. Love my BBS'.

    Yes, I've heard good things about their durability.

    Thanks guys, I think I'm definitely going to end up going with BBS, other than the heavier weight are there any other downsides to them? And how much do you think it would cost to powder coat the bright silver wheels just in case I want to go darker, something like anthracite?
