And on closer inspection a staggered setup, I've never seen that before.

fairly reasonable price on those ebay links.

And yes, Montreal is definitely the best colour. :D

Yeah the prices are not too shabby on they wheels. The 19s though are the only ones left and i don't know if they would be too uncomfortable and also think a tyre for each of them would be a hefty price. If only they were 18s id be seriously considering them.

I have an element of 'M-styling' on my car, If that's a good enough reason for the manufacturers to adorn a 320 with the M badge, then its certainly a good enough reason for me..

What is a "staggered setup" in respect of the wheels?

Wider wheels and tyres on the rear compared to the front. As per standard 17" Z3 setup of 7.5" front wheels and 8.5" rear.

Glad that's cleared up then -not! Let the debate continue.

On my commute home on the train there's quite a few drunk kids with a staggered setup!
