Announcement: VMR Wheels

Peter@VMRWheels · 03-30-2009, 09:44 PM

Our V710 in 18" has officially ARRIVED!!!

Based on the input from our friends and customers on E90Post, we are proud to introduce our popular V710 wheels in the 18" fitment. For those of you residing in areas unfriendly to 19" wheels, this wheel is made especially for you!

Available Colors & Fitments:

18x8.5 ET20 Coming Soon
18x8.5 ET35 Hyper Silver / Matte Black / Gunmetal
18x9.5 ET22 Hyper Silver / Matte Black / Gunmetal
18x9.5 ET33 Hyper Silver / Matte Black / Gunmetal
18x9.5 ET45 Hyper Silver / Matte Black / Gunmetal

CONFIRMED ARRIVAL DATE: April 16th

Our Hyper Silver was specially formulated reflect more light during low-light conditions. The paint formula is almost identical to our "Super Silver" when compared side by side in daylight conditions. The difference is the additive in Hyper Silver - it contains microscopic metal flakes, allowing more light rays to be reflected off the surface of the paint in low light conditions.

The Hyper Silver is a metallic paint, similar to the metallic colors offered by car manufacturers. Reflective license plates, tape, and clothing also use the similar technology. All VMR Wheels come with an unbeatable 1-year warranty and unlimited customer support.

PLEASE DIRECT ALL PURCHASE INQUIRIES TO ONE OF OUR OUR AUTHORIZED RESELLERS in the "Sponsors Classifieds/Groupbuys/Specials" area.

We also have in-house Mounting & Balancing equipment for Tire Packages

Unfortunately we don't have any official weights quite yet. Our CAD drawings do give us an estimated weight, but usually those are never really accurate. :P

Once the wheels arrive to our warehouse on April 17th, I will definitely be posting weights!

Thanks,

Nice. Now slap some tires on those suckers.

maui86 · 04-19-2009, 11:40 PM

whats the difference between the vb3 and v710?

rubber_ducky · 04-20-2009, 11:21 AM

They look great. I dig that gunmetal color.

Nebster · 04-20-2009, 11:32 AM

pricing?

edit: and weights?

Kleinacus · 04-20-2009, 02:19 PM

Some quick help if possible:

I'm planning on ordering the v710 18" non-staggered. I have an e90 335i without sport package so I'm currently running stock 17x8 ET 34 with 225/45-17 RFT. If I order the 18x8.5 ET 35 non staggered wheels and wrap them with 225/40-18, is this the closest I can get to my current setup while upgrading to 18's?

Based on your stock wheel setup, your new wheel will have:

7mm LESS clearance on the strut side, and the outside edge of the wheel will EXTEND an extra 5mm

Percent Difference: 0.455%

I believe these come in only 18X8.5 at a minimum, not 18X8, and 225/40/18 is going to look really skinny on those..

Kleinacus · 04-20-2009, 07:10 PM

edited my post. meant to put 18x8.5.

The OEM 18's are 225/40/18, so you should be perfect.. 235 would look better IMO though.

With our V710's we opted for a bit more aggressive front stance, so the V710's are a 8.5 +35 offset apposed to a 8.5 +40 on our VB3's.

If you are looking for more of an aggressive look, I would suggest the V710's with the straight cut spoke design vs. the OEM classic look of the VB3's.

18x8.5 +35 with a 225/40/18 would work without any need of fender rolling or aftermarket hardware. You will basically be sitting 5mm more aggressive then your current setup. If you are looking for a slightly wider stance, then a 235/40/18 would be a better choice. 225's on a 8.5" give it a slightly stretched look.

If you have any further questions, feel free to PM me.
