They look pretty cool. Just be careful with the offsets. Another guy in this forum bought the M5 reps and loved them. I think he posted pics in the aftermarket wheels thread (sticky at top of forum). Take a look.

I would ask about the weight of the wheels too. Anything above 27lbs (13kg) is too heavy. Some would say that they should be below 25lbs.

Good luck with your purchase...

Here's a link to the pics. There's a dark blue E90 and a silver E90 with these rims shown:

Ebay wheels are repro's andheavy they make your car slower and ride like shit. Just my thoughts. Go to a tire and rim store and get e reputable brand. Then you only buy once.
