Hey Guys, I just wanted to get your opinion on which wheel I should go with on my silver/gray E60.
One choice is the Breyton Spirit in sliver with a stainless steel lip, which by the way tire rack sells for $550/wheel and I?m getting a killer deal on or
the second choice is the Miro CSL style wheels. Pictures of both are below. Comments are welcomed. Thanks

Picture whore! 
My vote for CSL's.....but don't get MIRO. Get the Velocity Motoring brand. They are hubcentric and do NOT require centering rings like the MIRO's do.

Only exception would be the xi models.
Did you get them from Trinity, maybe they can chime in?

All E60 offset Miro's do have the E39 74.1mm center bore. So yes you should have hub rings.

Sorry for being clueless. 
Wha'ts a hub/center ring? What does it do? Does it have anything to do with the center cap? I'm considering Miros, so I'd like to know what I need before making decision. Thanks.

David - Which Miro's? I suggest getting wheels that have the exact center bore size that fits for our cars. Hub rings are not ideal.

Calton - I was looking at the Miro 346/M167 style. What is a hub ring, man? Actually, now I like your VMR CSL too. hmmm...
The VMR's are great. They fit like a charm.

A hub ring allows you to fit various wheels that have a different center bore diameter. However, they're not full proof and they can be a royal pain.

I hope to get resolution, for what its worth I would go with the velocity
