Quality aftermarket wheel that I don't need a load for?

I don't want to break the bank but would like to upgrade my wheels. I'd like to get some input on the Avant and Forgestar wheels. Wanted to know what the general consensus is on the quality of these wheels. I was looking at the VMR but some guys on here seem to think they don't hold up well. Thanks for any input.

Can't go wrong with any of the two Avant Grade or Forgestar wheels

I went with Avant Gardes M310s. Bought them through my local Discount Tire store. They had to order them, but only took a couple of days.

Try TSW. They have two rotary forged wheels, the Nurburgring and the Interlagos. 20" weighs about 24 lbs in either and will hold up better than any of this Chinese cast crap.

I have the Interlagos on my wife's 335d in 19" and she hasn't bent them yet. She was able to bend her stock 17" wheels somehow and so far so good with the rotary forged stuff. Takes OEM center caps, bolts, and TPMS is no problem.
