Not sure which wheel you're saying are knock offs of knock offs cause Breyton is a BMW tuner and their wheels are their own proprietary designs.

My Ride: My 5 and I met on Father's Day 2008 and have been together ever since. 20" Wheels (Make TBD), premium package, sport package, AiB V3 upgrade and a Passport Escort 8500 Radar Detector.
They could almost pass for Riverside Trafficstar (Maya) wheels too.

and the prize goes to... mrfva! I did a little more research and found out who sold these wheels. The guy @ Nitrous Garage says they are indeed Breyton Spirit replicas.
Unfortunately, I bought my E60 with these wheels already installed and didn't do my homework before my purchase.
I'm a little bummed, but I'll make the best of it.

Are you bummed cause they're replicas or you just don't like the style? They look pretty good to me..
No, I love the way they look. They are actually what drew me to the car in the first place. But yea, just a little bummed because they're replicas.

I'm sure they'll hold up fine for daily driving.

They look nice, even the forged wheel companies use this 10 split mesh pattern.
I was leaning towards this style for my next set of wheels, but changed at the last minute when I ordered.
