Does Anyone Have Avant Garde or TSW Nurburgring Rims?
I'm looking for some rims similar to these HRE but more affordable.
I found the TSW Nurburgring and Avant Garde wheels. Anyone run these on an E55? I noticed that the Avant Gardes don't have that aggressive offsets for the rears so you have to use a 10mm spacer.

A few weeks back there was a craigslist ad that ran for awhile that was selling those avantegarde wheels with tires in 19". They were on an W211 55 & looked good. I just wasn't familiar with the name. Reminded me of the Forgestar when I first glanced.

Looked at these wheels a few years back at a local buttler tire and was told they could make a more aggressive offset if I wanted and the weight isn't much higher than forgestars. Check on that and if not as mentioned, F14s are a good buy too.

I message a few venders about the avant garde and was told they won't fit Mercedes. Is it because of the bolt pattern? I haven't received a second reply get.
I like the tsw but they don't seem to be as concave in the middle as the avant garde and HRE.

The Nurburgring's and the interlagos' from TSW will fit, even in 18's. I got this straight from TSW. Their Mandrus line also has a few that will fit in 18's like the millenium and wilhelm.

I like the forgestar F14, but it seems like they make flat ones and concave ones too? Or do their wider rims (for the rears) jut come standards more concave.
Edit:
Seems like you can choose for the F14

Yah. I know HRE does make a flat spoke style like the TSW, abut the one I like is the concave style one.
