VMR 701 gunmetal 18" or 19"? Need help!!
Hello,
I will be upgrading to the VMR 701's tomorrow (if i can decide on 18" or 19"). I dont want to get 18's and look small and 19's and get rubbed all the time. I will be adding ST coiolvers soon after the wheel upgrade. What size should i go please. If any one have pictures please post. My car, Thanks. |

Look at my thread, look for the silver E90 I'm running on ST's wheels vmr 701 19x8.5 et 35, michelin pss 235/35/19 19x9.5 et 33, michelin pss 265/30/19 To compare ride height when you install place your iphone behind the front wheel well and stand it up below the sideskirt, I am iPhone + 1 finger height. For rear place phone in front of rear well below sideskirt, I am iphone + 2 finger height. No wheel gap, no rubbing, stock alignment. I could go lower but don't want too. Fenders are rolled as a precaution. http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=816927 |

It looks like 19's. No spacers. My PSS sidewall tires are too square and I added 10mm front and 15mm rear, barely a mile I started rubbing. Either I put more negative camber plus narrow sidewalls like Falken 453 or Hankook V12.

18s, but not sure if this car is lowered at all.
