Let's hear some arguing about which wheels I should get. I've narrowed it down to 4 sets all in 20" staggered set up and high polish finish.

-eForged EF-9
-DPE R07
-DPE R07 Varient S
-Sevas Forged R77

I'm posting this from my blackberry so I can't post pics until later tonight but maybe you know what they look like. Or maybe you have an opinion on the particular brands. The one thing I haven't checked yet is weight. That could sway my opinion one way or the other. All 4 sets are within $80 of each other at wheels direct online. They will be going on my sapphire black 535i with m-tech kit and H&R sport springs. Let me know what you think.

I was looking at the DPE R07 for a long time, but ended up going with the DPE R07 Varient S. I have them in gloss black 20x8.5 fronts, 20x10 rears. These are my first set of wheels, so I don't have anyything to compare them to, but I love them, and get some nice compliments. I'm a rookie to all this, so I wouldn't be able to tell you much on technical specs, but let me know if you have any questions on the R07 Varient S. I have some photos posted in the gallery for your reference.
