Is the 8.5 going to be the one from the E90 or will it be a different wheel/offset?

Or you could just powder coat your OEM's black.

Will 19s and 18s be available?

I have to say Carlos if you are reading this, you will be avoiding me many visits to TireRack's configurator, cause these wheels are stunning and also meet my performance minded side. Looks and function.
Winner!

Looks like there's a storm brewing on the E90 forum. Makes me reconsider this GB. Not the Monday news I was hoping for.

They don't give offset info.

Carlos, will there be a 19" version?

Will these wheels be certified correctly? Don't mean to sound like an ass but after reading some of the other stuff that has been posted on other forums, I feel it's my right. Also, what is the wait time? It's been going on 5 months since the other VS8 GB started so this is a bit of a concern for me. Lastly, what about those who opt for the 19's? Will there be an option for them?

Question: do you have the same offset front and rear?

I'd like to know if wheel rotation is possible and if the rears are "maxed out" in terms of offset.

Thanks!

To add to the plethora of questions:

Will there be enough rim/steering arm clearance with the 8.5"s up front to clear 235s?
