I do not like them, definately not the best choice for E60.

I agree they're similar to the Alpina wheels, I do think they would look much better if they were a little smaller, maybe 18's/19's and not 20's. I'm not quite sure I understand some of the harsh comments about these, they're relatively inoffensive TBH.

I'm sorry, but doesn't this belong under the "Parts, Accessories, & Mods" section?

As for the wheels, I say no.

I like them, but they look like they go more on a 7-series. I bet they're a pain to clean.

And can you explain why you prefer the Rothfords? Is it quality? price? or Design?

Do you know which of them have a larger RAND (alluminium rim)?

i sent an email to redenergie but it was returned to me. I used their german email adress. Do you have any contact details for me to their german adress? Tel or email?
