Get the new VMR V710 coming out.

They look like the HRE P40.
hmm they look alot like the breyton race gts's which were one of my top choices for a while. now ive got another choice to think about lol

For the past 3 weeks I've been set on the Miro's. But they dont stand out that much to me anymore, imo. As of now I'd say I like the Asanti's the best. VMR and Miro's tied for 2nd. From what I'm seeing most ppl on this forum like the VMR's and Miro's. So it's making my choice even harder. The reason I need all of your opinions to help me out is because I change my mind every week or 2
i gotta agree with you bro!..... man you've got good taste in wheels!!

Wait! I just realized you have the xi too solid...my bad!

So yes, no go on the 167's unless you do the Miro reps. I say go for a set of VMR's, but I'm not sure I like the ones you chose.

I think you should do a set of custom iForged or HRE's. What's $6K anyway in the grand scheme of things, right?

It sucks, doesn't it?!?!?! Hahahahaha! I went through it 2 years ago. Was a nightmare! You'll find something soon enough.

Not sure what you think of these wheels, but if I could do it over again, I would do either of these from VMR. Same wheels I have, but in a different color. I like the Gun Metal ones the best and they fit our cars PERFECTLY. I get looks, stares and compliments every day!

That would look AMAZING!!! And you know what... Wheels, Tires, new TPM sensors, mounting, balancing and alignment will cost you around $1800! There...I just saved you $1200-$2200! I'll send you my paypal address and you can send me half of what I just saved you.

Call VMR and ask for Gideon. Ask him to photoshop these wheels on an AW E60. He'll do it. You might need to send him a pic of an AW E60, but he'll do the rest. When you get it, PM me the link. I want to see it.

I have ZERO doubt though, that these will look sick! ZERO! People have told me that my CSL wheels look better on my E60 than they do on the M3. Most of those people were M5Board members, if that says anything.
