Thumbs up

Guys give me your opinion on this Vertini Sicilian Wheel in a 20" staggered set up on my 545 dropped on H&R Sport.

Yay or Nay?

Reminds me of R20 with black windows.

I dont know a lot about the company but I have never had bad luck experimenting with different wheels and company so far (knock on wood).

The website is www.vertiniwheels.com, not a LOT of inventory currently but I like a few of them. Semi 3 piece look at 1 piece price. Am getting them from Al at Sonic.

Thanks for the feedback.

Me too! I went ahead and bought them from Al at SonicM, he has not put a set on an e60 yet so I guess I am the guinea pig....

I will post pics in a week or so once I get them.

Yeah they look very nice but I imagine there are a pain to clean. My rims are a pain in the butt to clean, they get very dirty on a daily basis.
