19" TE37's weigh a bit more than 18-20lbs . . .

Great post here with wheel weights, including the Volks -> http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=243069
Thanks for that very useful link. I'm aware that different fitments will mean different actual weights but these wheels are usually very light compared to other wheels.
I think I'm adding the Advan AVS F7 to my list. I actually like it better than the Advan RS.

Frank, can you say concavity? I would have went with concavishness.

Tony, you know how I feel about your 360's....
Word on the street is that you're about to pick up some other wheels already.

The G10 wheels looks like the R10's by Radenergie. Aside from the R10's being the absolute best wheel for the E60, without question , I think you should do any of the above. Be different T. I say go for all 3 sets. One for each season, stock being for winter.

You posted the pics in order of my preference. My thoughts on each model:

G2
Looks to be the biggest looking wheel out of the three. Looks nice and
clean. What color would you get in this?

G10
I like the concavity of the spokes to the center. It gives it some depth.
But seeing how this only comes at most in 19", the lip may make the
wheel look even smaller.

TE37
It's ok. I'm not really feeling it. Looking at the pic, the spokes appear
way too bulky.

IMHO, I'd keep your 360Forged wheels than any of these.
What do each of these wheels weigh anyway?
Have you seen PraiseTheLowered's car? I probably would have said the same about the TE37's, but when I saw his car......
