Upgrading to M5 alloys

Thinking of chucking my 18inch m sport rims for some avant garde m5 replicas in gun metal grey. 19inch.

Thoughts? Positive or negative.

That is where I plan to get mine. I have seen a few on other forums, but the more photos I see, the better chance I can make up my mind

Found these:

I got them from C M Wheels, if I remember rightly they were around £650/700 delivered, I was tempted to go for the 20" but would have needed tyres as well and yes they will fit an f11 just different widths

The wheels on CM's website look different to your Skipsmith. They don't seem to have the black contrast on the spokes. Yours look like the originals that kind of had a cutaway section inside the spokes whereas the ones on CM website look to be completely flat with no black contrast?

What are your thoughts?
