Personally I'd rather see higher offset in the rear so we can go up to wider tires, (the guys with the ARC-8 are using +62 and are able to fit a 275 back there) but doing that would probably hurt the looks of this wheel.

[1013mm]

high offsets = no concavity, which is what street wheels need, or is generally perceived to be needed. arc wheels are track wheels mainly so offset is higher so people can run more rubber on the.... well.... track..

Just confirmed with VMR.

18x8.5 ET45 -Gunmetal/Hyper Silver, ETA 2-3 weeks.

18x9.5 ET50 - Gunmetal/Hyper Silver, ETA Early to Mid August...unfortunately

We are accepting preorders with deposits so you can make sure to get a set once they come in.

Is it possible to run 18x8.5 ET45's on all 4? Or would the 1er require that staggered setup?

Also, what are we looking at price-wise?

All prices as listed on our site. Yes you can run square setup with slightly more stretched tires in rear no problem...but optimally you want the proper staggered wheel setup with 18x8.5 front and 18x9.5 rear.

I PM'd you with a couple questions. Thanks for the heads up on this!

That's no problem for me, I'm just glad to hear that some are on the way. Once someone has both sizes in stock in silver I'm going to jump on them.

Any word on 19's? Will they be offering them in those offsets?

Highly doubt they will offer 1er offsets in 19"...no announcement has been made on the matter, regardless.

Sounds good. I'll post updates in this thread as they come in, so keep checking back

[Sylon]

Just wanted to bring this thread back to life to point out that the front wheels were never made. Hopefully I can work things out with Jlevi with the rears I already have, but its not looking good for these wheels at all.

VMR broke their promise.

So Nick, are you saying that the fronts are finally available???
