Finish will be up to the quality of the powder coat job and will be a factor regardless of OEM vs ZCP. AG 359s are a very common wheel and virtually no one has complained about strength. Resale is of no concern, and given the lower initial cost it would actually likely be better than buying brand new ZCPs if I ended up selling at some point. I would powder coat rather than paint for durability. I know plenty of people with powder coated wheels and not a single one has had issues with weakened wheels so I'm willing to take my chances on the minimal risk.
I'm thinking here...

I remember a reputed M3forum.net user called Mr Wolfe. If I'm not mistaken, he bought ZCP wheels (OEM) and then took them to a place that made them wider, basically by welding an additional section.

This allowed him to have really wide ZCP wheels.

Maybe this is the perfect option?


As far as APEX, yes they are good for the track but aesthetically (due to details and finish) cannot hold a candle to the ZCP or the TE:AL wheel from Bimmerworld.

@VIBE Motorsports has a really nice wheel, the VS02. This is available in 19"
