My Ride: 05 530i
87 325is
85 VW GTI
Basically I just bought this car so money is a little tight right now. I really like a lot of the wheels you guys have but your wheels alone are twice my budget. So I'm looking at a staggered set of gray 20" Privat netz wheels with yoko s drives for $1650otd mounted, balanced, and shipped with 0% interest for 12 months on my discount tire card. My second choice would be Axis Penta's for about $2000 but i'd have to wait till tax season for those. Thoughts, experiences

to the forum and congratulations on purchase! 
I like the mesh-look of the Privat wheels
As for tires, the Yokohama S.Drive is one of the contenders
I'm looking for replacing the current set of tires (along with
General Exclaim UHP and Falken 452).
From Tirerack, the Yokohama S.Drive got better survey results
than the General Exclaim UHP.

From what i've heard ... that they have a higher tendency to chord and develope buldges in the sidewall.
