Question Wheel Selection: Keep or Heap?!?!

Let the opinions fly guys! Im on the fence with these Beyern wheels. Have come across a set in my area for a reaalllyyy good price. Was originally going to go for the mesh look like the Vossen CV2's...but Im kinda feelin this look as well?

I musta missed the size but if they're 20's or 21's and they're going on yer Black 535 Sport then it'll be a nice contrast and I'm down with that . They be easy to wash (i.e. not many fiddly bits for brake dust to get into). The lip will give them a bit of extra zing and if you're ing over them then you're almost there. I try to be a considered buyer on big purchases ... I look at them for a few days ... intentionally avoid them for a day or three ... go back and have a look at them again for a couple more days ... try to talk myself out of it ... but then if I can't stop lookin' at the damn things then it must mean I hafta have them (karr-ching!). You'll know it if you have / get that feeling

Yeah my bad on forgetting to post the size!

They would be staggered 20 x 9's up front and 20 x 10.5 back.

I like the simple, 5 spokes look. Here is one I like more.

Great advice!!! Being an impulsive buyer will probably be the death of me someday....

I suggest you look at the 5 spoke forgestar if you're thinking about this wheel. IMHO, the Beyern an ok wheel.

Btw what does everyone think of the Vossen CV3's? This is actually a forum member KB7's car I think?

I think forgestar cf5 are good, that was my option after I couldn't located adv.1 flowspec. Still weighing options but the cf5 are more affordable then those Vossen but just a lil and I like the shape of cf5 more than Vossen.

The cv3's are great looking very simple and nice concave. It looks huge too. Do they come in 21s? That would be the perfect setup, for a budget.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I don't believe the Vossens come in a 21" size :

Thought so! What'd you think of the CV3's while you had em on? That seems to be the best concave spoke wheel for the price

Cool. Feel like I've narrowed it down to the CV3's or maybe the Stance SC5's. Not really liking the big lip on the Beyerns anymore. Thinking concave is the way to go

i'd go with the CV3's between those 2...the CV3's look bigger since the spokes go all the way to the edge of the wheel
