Wheel advise

2009 e63 White with Pano roof

Which wheels do you recommend? I live in SoCal and the roads/freeway are horrible and the wheels will need to hold up. Are forged wheel ideal for these types of surfaces?

I would like to go with 19" or 20" staggered and flush with the fender. which offsets do I need, etc. Any additional information needed?

Few wheels that I am looking at matte graphite:
Vossen CVS3, VSS2

Thanks for your help!

^ Agreed.
I currently have Renntech Monolights which are 19's, and I'm looking into another set of wheels and I won't go bigger than 19's.
Once you decide which wheels you want you can reach out the manufacture with regard to the offset.

I wouldn't invest so much in wheels either. Either Vossen, Avantgarde, MRR Design or Niche sport series. Easy to replace in case you hit those potholes.

Two Torque Monsters...E55/Viper
White/Pano E55 here with 19" Matte Graphite Vossen's. No issues,my roads are not that bad however. I went CV3 as they look bigger than other 19 inch wheels depending on design.
