You might also consider the wheels from Radenergie

At least from the website, they look pretty good.

iFORGED has a great product and alot of the past issues have been resolved. Just make sure you do your research and choose a reputable dealer and you will be just fine.

DPE wheels are also gaining steam in the marketplace, they are a couple hundred more than comparable iFORGED, and that is just due to their pricing strategy, not superior materials.

If I can help with any more advice or insight, just post your questions here!

Good luck with your wheel search!

Maya's are really nice wheels, although I think the DTM is more suited to Lexus / Infiniti, etc etc. The iFORGED suit the sporty aggressive lines of the E60 a little better IMO. iFORGED has its own designs and technology, its just human nature to equate something with a product that was here prior!!

If you choose Maya, then consider the STM, really strong mesh design, one of my personal fav's

I posted questions in another thread before I saw you had posted this here. Just a few questions:

1) How many miles have you put on your iFORGED wheels?

2) How long did the wheels take to be built and delivered to you?

I guess I'm one of the few that isn't boycotting iForged.
I think they've got great wheels.
One of their employees says they are using the same equipment and the same finisher as HRE. Granted this was an iForged employee, so take that with a grain of salt.

I'd gladly take a forged rim anyday over one that is casted.
