Are the BBS the only forged wheels of the three? And are they the lightest?
I think they all look good depending on your taste so my decision would be base on above.

To me, the BBS wheels were my last choice. I don't think they look ugly -- just very dated. That style of wheel has been around since I was knee high to a grasshopper.

In order of preference:
1) Breytons
2) BBS
3) Miro (unless they are OEM - either way 3rd place)
