Breyton actually makes a very solid wheel but they tend to run heavy. So if you are willing to sacrifice a bit in acceleration and handling, they aren't a bad option.
IMO, for the price, you can do a lot better though.

I got them from Tirerack......According to Wes at tirerack spacers are required for the Breyton Race GTS wheels. His extention at Tirerack is 648. Good luck
Noticed you have Potenza RE960AS Pole Position A/S. How do you like them?
Since tirerack brought up the rubbing issue, I might go with all around setting and not staggered.
This is the wheel I might buy: BREYTON Flame 9x8.9 all around with 245/35/19 Potenza RE960AS Pole Position A/S

My Ride: 2004 545i, 1995 M3
I had 18" Breyton's on my M3. Great looking wheels but they bend like crazy. I had them fixed so many times I lost count. A friend of mine had some (different style) on his M3 and hios bent also. Most listing for used Breyton's always say wheels are bent or have been repaired. My wheels were made in Germany but beware some newer Breyton's are made in China. If the German made one were soft I would hate to see the China made ones. In all honesty unless I was getting a hell of a deal I would stay clear of them.

Read this post and tell me what I'm sacrificing...
