VMR VB3 or Alufelgen CS7 18/19

Hi Everyone,

I just got my 135 about a month ago and wanted to get some nice shoes. I really love the 1M look and stance. So i have narrowed it down to the VB3 and the CS7. My dilemma is I want to stay 18 but I am not sure if it will look bad. I dont plan on dropping either so thats another factor. Roads in boston are terrible so the extra rubber helps alot. I have a 2009 135 with M Sport package. Does anyone know if this suspension sits lower than the non M sport package 135? I certainly dont want the 4x4 look. If anyone can point me in the right direction on pictures that would be great too. I see some pictures floating around but I never know if it is lowered or stock height.

Thanks

It shouldn't be any lower or higher than the stock wheels if you go with 18s. I personally would go with 18s (thinking about it on my 1m).

It's not going to look like a 4x4 but it may look a little better lower. That's subjective though. If you like the mesh look I would personally go with apex arc8's. A lot of "track guys" use these to attain the most (widest) rubber on the wheels, not to mention they are lighter and stronger than the aforementioned wheels.
