Just to set the record straight...we currently have no definite ETA on our optional finishes. They are slated to be released in fall.

OK, how about offset for E60. I believe ET20 Front and ET32 rear (staggered setup w/ 19'').
Any news when they are out?

For E60, we offer 8.5" ET25 and 9.5" ET22. This is for non XI E60 and is available now. Feel free to PM me if you have any more questions or you'd like to place an order.

Sorry I am still confused, the front offset looks good for E60 (535i) but I thought the rear offset should be the same between E90 and E60??? (BTW I don't want to put spacers).

The E60 requires a much more aggressive offset than the E9x. Thus ET22 is perfect for 9.5" on the rear.

I have OEM style-124 (that comes with sport package on 545i, pre-2007 550i and now 535i) with the following offsets(taken from realoem.com):
http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts...71&hg=36&fg=15

LIGHT ALLOY RIM 8JX18 ET:20 Front
LIGHT ALLOY RIM 9JX18 ET:32 Rear

I put into calculators on this website and the rear will be pushed out by 16mm and the front only 1mm??? (going to VS710 wheels)
I am probably novice in this but I'd think VMR will try to have close to OEM offset to reduce potential change in handling of the car as possible???

I like these wheels as 2nd option after morr VS8, Just have to think about this offset some more.

That makes sense. Since the V710 are .5"/12.7 mm wider than the stock (about 6.35 on each side), if you put the wheels on the car, the outer edge will extend 6.35mm outward. But since it's an ET25 instead of the stock ET20, the difference is 1.35mm (about 1mm just like the calculator says).

Kenny,
the weird thing is the rear is pushed out by 16mm! while the front is very conservative (@1mm extend out). I would think the front to back whould be extend out rather similarly, like if rear is 16mm maybe the front is also close to it also (all numbers compare to stock sport package).

Maybe this where my novice is shown, since the front tires swing in/out with steering and rear stays put, I don't know?
I just don't want my car looks like funny-car drag racing

If absolutely want to keep it as close to stock as possible, you can use the 9.5" ET33 offset as this would only extend 5mm outward more than the OEM wheel. You stated you wanted the most aggressive setup without rubbing, and as such that is why we offer the 9.5" ET22 offset. During your telephone conversation with me, you had mentioned you wanted to use 255/285 combo. In this case you may want to ET33 if you plan to do any lowering of your car. This would allow for more clearance.

That's completely normal. The front usually has less room so it's completely normal to run smaller wheels/tires as well as less aggressive offset there. The rear, on the other hand, has more room in the fenders and thus allow you to run wider wheels/tires and more aggressive offsets.

Since all BMWs are RWD, it's normal to have the rear wheels pushed further out than the front. You don't really have to worry about the weird look because it's not a drastic difference (about 1.5cm).
