Darwin from CarLab came by to show me this E60 with the VIP Modular VR 05 wheels in brushed aluminum. Looks like the Radenergie R10s but I believe the lip is chromed instead of polished.

Nice thx for posting, aren't they inox not chromed? we all know chrome weakens the steel so that is why it is not used anymore that often and specially for lips they must be tough to be safe.

A few key points on the VIP Modular wheels, is that this wheels is 3pcs, all fasteners, inner and outer barrell is produced by APP forged. Made in USA, no foreign components here folks. The quality of the cut is very clean which is very rare to see in todays forged wheels other than HRE.

I carry many forged wheels and i must say that VIP modular is among my top seller.

From the looks of the following myspace page, VIP Modular and DCR are affiliated somehow:
