Varrstoen

What are the thoughts about these wheels?

Too late - I have an opinion to offer, and I'm offering it..

First, I love BBS LM - on anything, including F10 M5. Obviously if you can afford it and don't mind spending the cash, go with real ones.

That said, the Varrstoen are considered to be pretty good. They're not forged, they're low pressure cast, and rears weigh around 29 lbs - which isn't bad.

Most here will tell you your nuts to put cheap rims on a 100k car etc - some more forcefully than others.

If you like 'em, who cares what other people think? At 1600/set it's hard to go wrong. They've been tried and tested by several m5board e60 m5 members.

I.e. http://www.m5board.com/vbulletin/e60...h-offsets.html

EDIT: just realized your link was for a different rim - my post is re ES1. Ah well - sorry..

Lol. Mine was a newbie mistake. Posted this before reading about the wheel. They reminded me so much of CCW that I used to like back in the day, but nobody offers that in 20 inch size

I really wanted to try something out of my norm and go for bronze, but not sure if it will look good with my color

I think black and bronze would be a great combo. You just gotta find the right wheels!
