Interesting wheel

I really have to move on new tires, and I want to move to 19 PSS's, so that means new wheels. I know a lot of folks have the mesh design, but it has always appealed to me, and I'd like some type of mesh design that hopefully is somewhat unique. I absolutely loved dubsesd Morr wheels and his flush fitment -- the man is a genius when it comes to the Z4M design, but I've dropped a lot of money on the car this year, and I need to keep my wheels relatively inexpensive (< $400 each).

I found these Avant Garde wheels - the M590. I can get them in a custom offset for a perfect flush fit. Weight would be the same in 19" as stock 18" on the front, and about a pound heavier on the back.

Below are some links. The orange BMW has a similar staggered layout to what would be used.

Here is a very crude Photoshop of how the wheels might look: (original photo from enthusiastauto.com)


I also like the VMR 710 and thought the 710FF (flow formed) was my wheel, but it doesn't come in silver. Bummer. I see that the Apex PS-7 is similar, but with a significant weight savings, and it is available in silver.

What do you guys think of the AG M590? Yea/Nay?
