My buddy is always on bimmerforums.com and always forwards me links. These wheels look nice. Don't know anything about them but thought I'd share.

Advan are good quality wheels, usually seen on the import tuner (Honda, Nissan, Toyota) scene. Very good quality and lightweight - I used these and ADR when I used to race my old Accord. It would be pretty cool if they made them for E60 fitment.

i think it is from japan, very nice wheel and they are light, about $700-$800 per wheel, decent price compare to other forged wheels like over $1k each

That is a gorgeous wheel.

BMW uses the Advan RS-D on their M3 race cars.

Look at this thread for some weight info. The 19" RS-Ds are about 3lbs lighter than comparable 19" HRE Monobloks.

Thanks for the info Euro.

Not sure about weight, but I like the look of the AD7 better than the RS-Ds. I asked my buddy to PM the OP for more info. and prices. I will share info if anyone is interested... once I get it.

I think you're right. Advance One rings a bell. I only looked at the picture on that thread and just went by what pjinca said about them being Advan wheels.
