I love the Vossen, 360 forged, ADV.1, and Morr concave wheels, but I can't budget that kind of money just for the wheels. I am looking for a quality concave 19" wheel that would cost around $1500-2000 for a set. I have a 550i with the M sport and I would like to go as wide as possible without any rubbing. I currently have the stock 172's at 8.5 in the front and 9.5 in the rear. I would like to also avoid using spacers and find wheels close to the stock front ET 18 and rear ET 32. Is there a wheel in between the Vossen, Morr, etc. and the VMR, Alufelgen, Linea Corsa, etc.? Thanks in advance for your response.

Have you looked at Alfugen, VMR, Miro? Hit up Nerweezy (member name) of Trinity Autosport, they sell some of those and they fit in your budget Good luck. Oh, and also check out the private member classified section

I've got the Avant Garde M310 wheels powder coated Jet Anthracite Matte
Rears: 19x11 et33 with 305/30's
Fronts: 19x8.5 et 15 with 245/35's

Here is a pic with no spacers




Here are a few pics with 10mm spacers on the rear, and none on the front







Both pics are with stock sport suspension.

These wheels will def keep you within your budget.

Hope this helps!

My Ride: Bmw E60 530i 2004 Jet Black sport package on Linea Corse 19" Lc818 Saphire Black
Default

I just installed last saturday a set of staggered Linea Corse 818 satin black on my Jet black 530 sport package !! They look very very good on the car, everybody love my wheel, in fact they look awesome and after all my research, the Linea corse has the best concavity between all the other sets, better than miro 111, vrm 710, alufelgen, vertini magic or the forgestar. I think I'm the first E60, you own them, and I'm very satisfied of the look they give to my car !!

I've enjoyed the Vertini Magic Concaves so far and they're really affordable as well. I believe they can be had for 2k for a set of 20's. No need for spacers too. Sent you a PM

Thanks for the responses. It looks like it will be a choice between the Linea Corse 818 and the Vertini Magic. These two seem to be the most concave at this price point. I want to stay 19" because I don't want the extra unsprung weight, the ride, and the stress about imperfect roads that come with the 20"s (this does not mean I aim for the potholes). I am thinking 9.5"/11" for the the widths. It looks like the 9.5 with a 245/35 will not rub and I can go as big as 305 in the rear with no problems. Am I missing any other brands at this price point? Thanks again for the responses.

I love the Vertini Magic's. Excellent choice if you go that route and 305 in the rear is friggin sexy.
