Your thoughts on these rims...

Fellas, I would like your opinion on these wheels, because I'm thinking about purchasing them in the 19'' staggered fitment. I've seen them on a couple of G's and they look pretty good. Just your thoughts on the build quality as well as overall appeal. They run for about $1800-2100 with a good tire package.

They've looked good on every coupe I've seen them on, didnt like them on the sedans for some reason though. Probs on the heavy side, but I bet they're built well and the finish is of a good quality. I wish their other designs came in better sizes, some of them look really good.

Thanks so far the insight... I waiting to see if a few other members might chime in. I might end up pulling the trigger on these tomorrow.

On a side note, I've been back and forth on whether to keep my G or trade it for a 08 335i sedan. After test driving, a 335i coupe a couple months ago, I straight fell in love, it's amazing!! The barriers between me and getting a 335i: 1)Getting raped at the dealership on the trade, my car is valued at about 23K;I know they won't even come close. 2) The wife = " No more cars, you're 27 year old, we need to save to buy a house" .lol. Dreams shattered.

I felt maybe buying rims and some other mods might sway my decision on the G side...

I kinda like the rims and I agree with the wife. Spend a little cash on the G for some tasteful mods and buy a house. Win/win in my book.

I like them. I'd just wait until someone sells a set used for probably 60% of your new price. win/win/win in my book
