Different M5/M6 Reps?

I've been looking at M5/M6 reps for a while and realized that there are a few different reps. When I see ones that I really like on a car, they're what I would consider the "nicer" M5/M6 Reps.

These are an example of the ones I think look awesome:


These ones don't tickle me just right:

or these



Could somebody direct me to who would carry the first ones? And is there a difference in manufacturing of the two?

I have the M5 reps in the gunmetal barrel. The above appears to be black.

There's an issue with M5 reps. The Avant Garde 355's have 10" rears with ET38, which may be too aggressive. You'll have some wheel poke without some negative camber.

I have the generic knock offs which are 19x9.5" ET38, which appear flush to me. They are gravity cast and are heavier. The AG are a low pressure cast and should be lighter and better quality. But, to me they are too aggressive. Although, I know one guy here did them. A lot of guys have done the 9.5" rears.

Do folks in here not care about wheel weight, seems like no one ever discusses the weight of wheels. My first consern over looks is one, manufacturing process, second is quality, third wheel weight, then style

No idea haha. My guess would be another $300 per set. I've seen some wheels at 19" with the option for 20" adding $150 for the front pair and $150 for the rear pair.

Naw! E60 M5 wheels didn't look like that. The 2nd set look like the older M6 wheels. I like that style of wheel.

I went with an aggressive 20x8.5" et.20 front, 20x10" et.33 rear. No rubbing, but I did rub once on a very, very deep dip, but I believe it was an inner fender well rub (..no rub marks on the sidewall of the tire).

Yes! It's lowered on H&R Sport springs and the tires are Pirellis.
