Plenty of white 335i's on silver wheels on the VMR site, there's also this 135i on 713's. Check the AW gallery here too.

Here is a photo of cadeucsb's 135i showing what the V718's look like. He is running a 18x8.5 et45 front 225/40 & 18x9.5 et50 rear 255/35 setup.

Stock M suspension right now with 215/40ZR up front and 245/35ZR in the rear Hankook Ventus V12 evo K110 XL.

The wheels are V718s 18x8.5 and 18x9.5.

My car is filthy right now because it's been raining and I hate to post pics of it looking bad but I'll snap some photos when I get off work today for ya. Anything you want to see in particular?

I'm planning on lowering it with Eibach Pro springs next week. I'm pretty stoked about it. I just got the rims in the mail and put on Tuesday but I love them and I've gotten lots of compliments already.

oman135 · 02-24-2012, 02:43 PM

My eibach springs should arrive in few days and then I will order new wheels.
nothing in precticular but a side view will explain the rim details...as I want to go with silver
thanks

christopherkriens · 02-24-2012, 03:26 PM

18" V710s or 19" V718s

I think that the V718s/VB3s in 18" are a little too spokey.

Are the 710s more concave in the middle than the 718s, or are they the same(ish)?
