Wow! How about some specifics, like M, xi, non-xi, what you have now, wheel size preferences, etc? And while you're at it, fill out your profile and signature so we can help you better.
BTW, I personally am not a fan of black wheels.

I may be wrong, but I don't think those are his wheels. At least the impression I got is that those are an example of the wheels he likes. O.P. you can chime in on this any time now...

Forged wheels are outrageously expensive. Not everyone one can afford them.
I've had good luck with my 166 reps from OEMWheels+. The only way I could get the M5 look on my xi.

Your correct, i was just giving him another option bc the rc7's are very similar to the pic posted above but those wheels are real nice as well. Also IMHO forged wheels arent neccessary unless you wont feel the price difference or want the lightweight benefits. OEM wheels are as heavy or heavier than most reps ive seen..
