I like these, but it may be the car that is swaying me.....want one of these in Titanium Silver so hoping they offer that standard BMW color in 2011.

Both seem to be very good quality. The Forgestars are lighter and a lot of people are running Vossens so I'd go with the Forgestars for a little more exclusivity.

Just looked at the 082's, they look waaay better. Get those.

If you're going for looks in regards to looking VIP/Bling, bling, Voseen FTW, if you're going for lightweight and more performance driven go with forgestar, ez decision IMO, just which ever direction u are going with ur G.

Those two brands suit two different needs:

Vossen: Luxury multipiece look to enhance the look of the vehicle. Offers a flush fitment with a large rear lip which flows well with the lines of the G.

Forgestar: Light weight flow form alloys placing function before form (style). Forgestar offers variations in fitment options and widths along with multiple finish options.

Contact us for pricing on either.

Vossen is the way to go

5 year finish warranty and lifetime structural warranty. No other companies can compete with that.

When it comes to weight, it's hard to agree that Forgestar wheels are a lot lighter than Vossen..
Didn't Forgestar claim 25lb for 19"x10 F14 and even it was approximate.
Vossen 082 is about 27lb for 20"
I would like to see how much they really weigh on a scale.

I can tell you for a fact that Vossen 084's with 285/30/20 FK452's (REAR WHEEL) on the scale weighs almost 60lbs...
