don't buy replicas. Look on craigslist. cheap sets pop up all the time

You'll begin to see many differences between them in time.

The style5 has a flat lip all the way around... The RS does not...

this,

RS's in excellent condition cost a lot and can trade hands for 2-3k. Style 5's are all over the place, and go for a little over 1k in excellent or refinished condition, but can be had for 500-600 in poor-good condition.

They are generally not an E36 fitment. That side profile does not show that you need to a stretched tire, negative camber, rolled fenders, and stiff springs to keep the car off the tire.
