My car rides better on my VMR's then stock! I think they are a great deal for the price. I've used mine for 1 season and they still look brand new and straight as an arrow

honestly i wouldnt put VMR on your m5, id powdercoat your 166's gloss or matte black and call it good

if you dont want to go forged, then dont do anything to your m5, youll feel the performance decrease because VMRs are not light wheels

What are the weights of both wheels? OEM vs VMR in same size?
