Wheels - Need Feedback/Opinion
I am looking at getting new wheels for my Black Sapphire Metallic 135i. I'm interested in the VMR V710 or look a like wheels. I found the following options available here locally in Melbourne which look very close to the V710 and are also available in the offsets for the 135i.
Euro division have the GT-CX wheels in Silver Matt Black and Matt Anthracite. they are4 available in 8.5x18 E45 and 9.5x18 E50. Icon have the Icon Zest in Hyper black and Crystal Black. They are available in 8.5x19 ET45 and 9.5x19 ET50. I was leaning toward the 19". I saw the crystal Black which looked faily good however, not sure if they are to dark for a black car. Has anyone here had any experience with these wheels? should i just stick with the VMR and order form the US? Which one do you think would suit my black car. The first lot of pictures are from euro division and the second lot are the Icon Zest. What do you think? Last edited by DTNJNQ; 07-29-2011 at 05:00 AM.. |

Euro division wheels are the "same" as VMR wheels so i think you should just save the shipping cost!
I have the VB3/CSL GTC wheels from euro division. I was in the same boat as you previously until I found euro division. The icon wheels look sick, where did u find it?

I found the Icon wheels on ebay
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/19-WHEELS...item415b8b720b they have a webpage on facebook http://www.facebook.com/iconwheels#!...=wall&filter=2 I have contacted the distributor and he is going to organise a test fitting for me next week. I also had a look at the crystal balck ones in person at FWT. They looked pretty good however, I would also like to see the other colours. http://www.fwt.net.au/products.asp?index=ICON+WHEELS The cost of the wheels from both Euro division and Icon Zest are $900. |
