I myself was very in between these 2! After thinking hard for atleast 2 months, I went with the 313's and so glad I did. Love the 313 in gunmetal!

313's for me

Size of brake disc I feel is an important factor, 313's look wrong on a 318/320. You can't go wrong with either mate.

CSL's if you have standard calipers. The thing with 313 is they show the poor quality OEM stoppers off too much IMO.

CSLs will be easier to maintain. 313s are a nightmare when it comes to pot holes and curbing but they do look amazing. I have a love/hate relationship with mine!

Watch out for corrosion with the 313s, even with great care the centre starts to corrode around the wheel centre. Also watch out for stone chips which allow water to enter under the clear coat and they then turn milky BMW have been known to replace under warranty for the centre corrosion, diamond cut not very forgiving and not easily repaired.

313 for the OEM look... CSL style wheels do look nice, but belong on an M3 in my opinion.
