M-Sport Rim Size..

Hi guys!

Not sure if this has been asked before.. but does anyone know the sizes and offset of these rims? I know they're 18".. but are they 8" deep? or 8.5"?...

I only ask because I want to put CSL style rims on the car, and want the same size wheels as the current.. don't want to change (or as little as possible) the contact patch between tyre and road..

Cheers
Nate

Most CSL replica wheels and the actual OEM CSL wheel are going to be 19's. The stock setup is 8.5 in the front and 9.5 in the rear.

Check out the EAS website and you can see other wheels that VMR makes that are in stock sizes.

We do offer VMR VB3's in a 8.5 +40 and 9.5 +45. This will work with a 225/245 tire setup.

awesome stuff guys cheers!
Ill have a think! I know I want matte black.. but wont the wider rims and thus wider tyres upset where/which part of the tyre sits on the road? and thus the camber setup? or not?

I'll be getting 18"s for sure.. that way if there is any change in the contact patch it'll be minimal right?
