Need some opinions on new wheels

Looking at adding Rohana RFX-5's 20 x 8.5 F and 20 x 10 R. Thoughts? I'm attaching photo of RFX5's and my current wheels. Thoughts?

Not the best quality-wise. Keep in mind, "rotary forged" is marketing term, those wheels are cast and then spun over a mandrel.

Glad I didn't pull the trigger, I checked reviews of these wheels and didn't see any issues. Thanks, I will do some more research.

Take a look into Savini SVF wheels or Vorsteiner VFF Line. Savini has many sets in stock and Vorsteiner is bringing out a couple new designs for your vehicle.

I don't have a good answer just to say it doesn't rub at all at this height. I did go to a shop the other day and try to go a little lower and they thought it would rub if I dropped it any further. Maybe the drop springs are lower than where I'm at with the coilovers?

VFF 111

I settled on the 20 in Vorsteiner VFF 111 setup for my 19 M550. They're almost ready to ship and will post pics when they're mounted.
