Yes, same question!

And it looks like it has the "M" logo on it.

I would love a set of these for my 1er

Any rubs? What's your camber setting and did you pull your fenders?

Rolled the fenders front and rear. It's really at the max I thnk you can get outbound. I can get an rims with an extra 1" - 1.5" on the rear, maybe .5" more on front but have to get mm specific offset.

But riding on rails is an understatement. It's sublime

I don't really feel like searching 42 pages, has anyone confirmed the weights on these wheels? Primarily the 701's?

Use their website...

Or use the search function on the forum

thez99 · 03-22-2020, 07:10 PM

I've tried both obviously..

Their website shows no weights, and there's no easy way to search for VMR weights on here, i've tried. It's too bad even the manufacturer doesn't supply this kind of info on their site. If tirerack and others can why can't they??

I mean I'm already fairly sure the ones I'm looking at are no lighter than the stock 182's I'm just curious, I would much rather swap for a lighter set regardless

This is exactly what I am looking to run. Any rubbing issues? Whats your suspension? Both my front and rears are rolled. Those are vb3 right? Fitment looks stunning.

Is this the place to get any kind of deal on VMR 710's?

My 703's weigh 24lbs. Not sure where I got that but at some point when I purchased them I got the info from somewhere.
And I believe 701s in 9.5" were 24.5lbs each. I was looking at those too.

FredrikM · 05-16-2020, 02:01 PM

Bought my 701's in 2014 and still in love with how she looks.

nhd4spd · 05-17-2020, 08:28 PM

I'm getting ready to pull the trigger on W&T, and after doing a ton of reading I see that some people with VMR 710 18x9.5 et50 rears have rubbing when they are lowered and running 255/35/18 and some people have no rubbing, seems possibly related to the tire choice, ie Michelin may be wider at the same spec than other brands?

If I went with Hankook Ventus at 255/35/18 in the rear are they on the narrower side? Would they be safe/no rubbing on an M Sport car with a BMW Performance V2 suspension kit installed? For reference, the BMW performance kit puts the car 1/2" lower than it was with the factory M Sport suspension

Looks beautiful.

Mind sharing your exact wheel and tire specs?

Really nice, thanks for tipping me off that the 710s come in ET 50. I didn't scroll down as it was hiding in with the 19s/20s.

18x8.5 et35 square w/ Nitto NT555 G2 tires (one rubbed, should be replaced). Came with the car. Wheels/tires FOR SALE! Wheels are basically new, tires have plenty of tread.

itranyesterday · 10-05-2025, 01:34 AM

Haven't seen any 1's w/ V802's. Hope this could be helpful if anyone wants a reference.

Absolutely enamored by the way it looks. If you're not looking back when walking away from your car, it's not the right car.
