I've gone through 30 sets of wheels, 90% of them are the real deal because good replicas like Varrstoens did not have a good reputation yet back then.
I drove on TE37SL vs ES222 one after another for winter/summer and with the same tire sizes, I could not tell the difference at all.
I can't comment on ROTA's because they have nothing but bad rep.
I had a bunch of different Work wheels like bomarchers, vs-xx, gnosis series and etc and I could not tell the difference from them versus those shitty TSW wheels. Yeah I felt like a baus but in the end, I feel like a turd for spending 5k on wheels on my, back then worth 40k, 350z.
Good for you if you do! Go ahead and do take advantage of that 0.2 second in 0-100km/h and that 1.x second per lap.
But for me, I will no longer spend a shit load of money on wheels that will get me from point a to point b in the same way.
Like I said, I know for a fact that most of us do NOT track our cars.
Look at it this way:
2010 Audi A5 + $5k wheels
vs
2010 Audi S5
I hope you chose the S5. | Why so much hate on people spending good money on quality wheels? IMO, why would you replace good factory wheels with something not as good? I would have zero issues putting $5k wheels on a s5 or a5
With lighter wheels, forget about lap times, how your car responds to potholes and ruts in the road is worth it alone.

And not all factory wheels are better. And I know for a fact that lots of OEM BMW wheels are prone to cracks.
And I think you missed the point that I was saying for $5k you couldve gotten a S5 over an A5.

^ I think you missed my point, why would you stretch your personal finances to the point you would have to choose this car or that car over a set of wheels?

Ok I get it, you're clearly more balling than the majority of the forum with your car list in your sig.
When I read "I would have zero issues putting $5k wheels on a s5 or a5", I interpret that as whether you have an a5 or a s5, $5k wheels are worth it. But clearly you meant it the OTHER way which meant YOU (the 0.01% of the forum) can afford whichever combo with no issue.

^ Same thing applies though... you know you're getting rid of her in a year or two, would you invest 5k for real tits or 1k for fake tits.
This means you can have 5 different girls with fake tits at the same time :O
