Anyone tried any of the various VMR "style" wheels???

Like these...

If so what are your thoughts? Actual VMR 710s seem pretty hard to come by in the UK.

I got a set from ebay but from a different guy.

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/vmr-style-18-5...#ht_697wt_1139

These are afaik the Avant Garde m310 (as listed on the box delivered in), which are actually better and cheaper than VMR's. Mstyle stock VMR's if your after them.

Pic of my car, love the alloys!

Do like this style with the extreme concave. Was considering a set for mine before I picked up the CHs
Only criticism is they look slightly small above? Are they just 18s? Why didn't you go 19 fella?

So there not real VMR wheels, hence VMR "style", just replicas of VMR's?

Thoughts (if not REAL VMR's), there expensive and you can get cheaper sets from:

which would be preferable to any Ebay seller.

I got a decent set of 710 reps from Tyre Safety Centre in Cookstown N.I. Im still waiting on a sunny day to take some decent pics. £870 with tyres and Im sure they deliver to U.K.

You might want to invest in a set of decent locking wheel nuts, it would be a shame to see £870.00 go walkies.


Looks good though
