What's your opinion on these??

I was an avid fan of ECS tuning when I still had my B7 and routinely received emails on sales and promos. I got an email a few days ago on a sale of Alzor wheels style 730 for a staggered set of 4 for $499.

Question is, does anyone have knowledge of these wheels? What's the quality? Is the weight fair for aftermarket wheels? Will they fit the F30 (application guide only lists E6x, E9x, F1&2 and F10). Any information on these would be awesome!

Those looks to be reps of the E92 335is wheels. I am kinda of meh on no-name reps on nicer cars like a new BMW.

You get can wheels cheap when TireRack has clearance sales, and often name brand with better quality.

they are no name, no better than any rep, they are all the same i believe.
if you look on craigslist and ebay, you will find the same 313 reps, for alot cheaper since you can pick them up (its in queens somewhere)

Thanks for your feed back gentleman. I guess reps will be reps will be reps. I'm not in an immediate rush to get them, just thought it was a pretty good deal on some AM wheels.

I say buyem up! Worst case you throw them on for winters, or sell them. I think they will look good, but in NYC you think they will hold up? I have seen many bend / break foged wheels let alone a gravity or flow formed wheel.

Yeah I've seen my share of trashed rims too but for $500 I figured they wouldn't make a bad set of winters like you said. Majority of the time I'm dodging NYC potholes as much as possible; if I'm to be so unlucky to run into a pothole that can cause extensive damage then better these than some $4k rims.

ECS is a great site. I wouldn't go with those wheels though. If you search around on E90 post you can probably get the real thing for a good deal. Would love to see them on an F30. They were sweet on the E92s.
