Forgestar F14 or VMR 710?

e92wolfe · 12-18-2016, 05:58 PM

Hey guys, I have a white 2011 e92. Cant decide on what wheels to get vmr 710 or forgestar f14? Both would be 19". Can't make up my mind. Any suggestions?

Id say VMR, i had forgestar f14's and they crack ridiculously easy, they have a very thin barrel and whenever u hit a decent pothole you can crack the rims, i got tired of repairing mines and got rid of them, and im from Northern California where the roads arnt that horrible.

I have never had VMR's but know of some people running them and they are holding up very well. just my 2 cents

I just got VMR V710's for my 335xi and LOVE THEM.

Front: 18x8.5 + 235
Rear: 18x9.5 + 265

Thank you, I'm leaning towards the vmr'S! I wanted to go 19" gun metal.

I went with 18 just for a smoother ride, but I also go the gunmetal it looks amazing. I ordered mine from Mod Bargains, got delivered with new tpms, tires, and balanced.

This is the second vehicle I have had VMR's on, with my Audi I previously owned being the first. V710's on both actually, and I a have had no issues whatsoever with them, and they look great IMO. with that being said, I do love the deep and super deep concave styling of forgestar wheels but have no experience with them. Was looking to pick some up for the first time to replace my VMR'S sooner or later.

I've had my f14's for a year and a half now and I have zero bends or cracks. If you are willing to fit SDC all around, I say go f14 cause they look so much better. But if you aren't looking for something that aggressive, absolutely go with VMR. I don't think the f14 looks good in non SDC.

jazredgt · 12-19-2016, 10:51 AM

SDC?

IllSic_Design · 12-19-2016, 10:55 AM

I have VMR 710s(I think they are 710s) on my 335 in 18in(they came off of my E46) and I have had no issues with them. I have hit tons of pretty big pot holes and square edged bumps and no issues with cracking or bending,

I have VMR 710 on my car, strongly recommend them

e92wolfe · 12-19-2016, 04:08 PM

From all the replys and extensive research looks like I'll go with the 710's. 19"' plan on running staggard 235 and 265 in the rear so I don't rub. Would go 275 but I heard people rub. Anybody running 275?

jazredgt · 12-20-2016, 09:37 PM

I am and I rub slightly but I think it's due to my offset on a 9.5 rim and running spacers too.

All depends on your offset and ride height and camber. Peopl can fit up to 295 in the back
