What’s up? I’m in the market for new wheels and suspension. Been checking out VMR v710 18”. Is there a good resource to see pictures and setups of cars with these wheels? I’m targeting 18” in hopes to improve handling and looks over my stock 17”. I want to know something about what I need when I take car to shop. My car is a 2012 e93 335i. No sports package unfort so ugly arse wheels.

I like the v710 but ordered the v703 from VMR a couple weeks ago in 18” for my E92. I think 18” is the best compromise especially if the roads are riddled with potholes.

Are you doing anything else with your car or just the 18”s? What would stock springs and shocks look with those wheels?

I like the stance of the sport springs and I will have very little space between the tires and fenders. The only project for me now is to have the hood, roof and trunk lid resprayed because of clear coat failure.

I’ve been checking out pricing for coilovers and damn.. gonna drop another $1k+ ok top of the $2,500 for wheels and tires.

Got any pics with new wheels?

I prepaid to get the Black Friday price and the rears are on backorder till March or April. In the meantime, I will be having the clear coat failure fixed with a repainting of the hood, rood and trunk lid just after the New Year holiday.

Pretty common wheel on this platform so there should be lots of pics here and in other threads of different colors, sizes/offsets, etc.

Coupes and verts sit fairly low stock so even on stock suspension it will look nice, just make sure you get an offset that's more aggressive than stock so they don't look sunken in. GOod luck!
