My Ride: 2008 Silverstone II E60 M5 2012 E70 AW X5 50i Sport w/ LCI Aero Kit and Rocker Panels
I've seen some threads about people talking about the M5 Replica wheels made by ABI. The parent company is supposedly an Italian company called, Ruotecompany (http://www.ruotecompany.com).
I've seen these wheels on eBay, but the distributor is in Australia and wants $500 to ship. I'm wondering if anyone knows if you can buy ABI wheels here in the US? Here's a link to what I'm talking about...

Here's an owner that has them on his car...

PS - These are hands down the best replica wheels I've seen. Much better than MIRO, which have a lip around the entire edge of the wheel. The reason I can't go with the OEM wheels is bc I have a 530xi (AWD). I need an offset of 38mm or higher (basically, the 3 series offset), which requires me to buy replica's. OEM wheels don't come in this offset for this wheel. :thumbsdown:
