i wonder why you would say something like this.... 

They are significantly lighter. (7-8lbs lighter than the Breytons . . . per wheel)
They are significantly stronger. (2-piece forged)
They are 19" vs. 20". (better ride quality and better performing)
They look fantastic and are timeless. (Diamond Black Finish with deep machined lip)

Roy - You need to provide a much better picture of wheel set #2 from a distance. Photo set 1 and photo set 3 are similar in their shot's, but #2 does not do those wheels any justice.
That being said, anyone's opinion up until now is garbage and does not count.
Start the vote over with the Breytons taken from the same shot/angle as #1 and #3.

I think the Breytons are total eye candy and its original.
the 167s are just another set on another black e60
I dont like the bbs rs-gts but if ur a performance whore than it may be the perfect set.

I personally like the Breyton's the best. Member poleposition was the first member on this board to have them on his 550 and they look sick! He's running 295's in the rear too, with spacers on both front and rear.
lose the 167- unless you get 8 pot gt brembos, because the gaps are too big
bbs doesn't look right (don't kill me) on the E60, (better on e90)not aggressive enuf, but are the best wheel
in action/tech wise.
Breytons in the flesh are awesome, just don't kerb them
