get em

cheap on the wallet and you can get good rubber for them

they make them in the correct offsets and widths for XIs as well as regular e60's

im seriously thinking of getting these as my winter wheels

After comparing these to the ones that PTL posted, the ones that PTL posted are more aggressive width/offset wise and are pretty much identical to Volk TE37s. These look really close but the spoke part where it hits the barrel is much more angled and almost goes straight out before curving back down to the hub area than the real TEs. The ones that PTL found are less angled and look closer to the real deal. Both are super nice though, good cheap alternatives .
