hey guys and gals,
this is my probably 5th post about wheels and between thorough searching and going onto about 50 different websites im down to a couple choices...a member has offered me his gunmetal grey breyton race GTS with falken tires for $1400 but two of the wheels need to be worked on(bend and curb rash)...
But...now my favorite wheels are asanti AF120 or AF128's but im too poor for that...and I found Vertini Hennessey wheels on ebay for 1499 free shipping in a staggered setup. 20x8.5 front..20x10 rear...
Now thats a good price depending on what tires I can get for them... I saw the falkens posted by the vendors for 675 installed but thats in cali and im in NY...what tire sizes would be best for a 05 530i non-sport??
Any other suggestions besides these two wheels?

If you guys are investing in rims i suggest good quality forged rims. I prefer 2 piece or 3 piece just in case you get bored and want to change the face or lips, in my opinion. I i'm running on my 5th set of rims now just to let you guys know the extra thousand on the rims is good if you find something you like. I would go with the asanti if thats your first choice don't switch or change your decisions because of the price, save up for it and get it later. You will feel much more satisfied once you get the rims you like. Asanti af 120 or 128 my choice too.
Good luck with your search in rims.
As for as with tires, i've tried Falken, nitto, toyo, pirelli and yoko's. My choice would be bridgestones since i've heard some good things about those tires. I will put those on next. I still love nittos.
