Recommended Aftermarket Wheels

I am looking into some wheels (20") OEM, Replica, and aftermarket. Anyone using aftermarket wheels with no shimmy and or vibration? If so who is the manufacturers and do you have picts?

The selection on 20" EOM are pretty slim, so I am just looking at options.

BTW its a 2007 4.8 X5.

Thoughts...............

Im really having a hard time finding wheels for my '11 x5d. tire rack only offers 19" wheels. I don't want reps and also don't want to spend 6k$+ on custom forged wheels. I would love a nice happy medium but just can't find it

I am looking at some Beyern wheels after winter but still not sure if I want 19's or 20's (currently stock 18's). If I get 20's I don't want them staggered nor add any spacers or that junk and I guess if I get 29's I would also have to get the wheel well extenders. Just looking for a good quality wheels that look great.

I saw some beautiful reps online, is there problem with them? Or are they just heavy?

alvam said he doesnt want staggered, but they just look awesome from behind, the tires will be costly but they are worth it if you are upgrading already. With winter on the way, I am not sure if it is a good idea to get 11" wide tires, though, unless you are in the south.

Some reps are made poorly and most reps are heavier than if you were to get an OEM or quality aftermarket wheel. I am not a huge fan of any of the reps available right now. I am looking for a 20" staggered setup but it's a tough search. It's either reps or 6k$+ custom forged wheels. Seems like there is no middle ground
