1junkie, please share the specs on those wheels? And tire sizes please? Looks fantastic!

VMR - I am looking at 19 x 8.5 in the V803 for the spring. But do you guys offer a 45 offset for the V803?

Apologies for the delayed reply! We do offer an ET45 front on the V803. We also offer an ET57 rear that will accommodate a 265 rear tire!

is a suspension (ST X) possible with my 19 wheels?

What offsets are those wheels?

Our recommended fitments are based on stock to mildly lowered ride height, so a mild drop won't be an issue.

Your car looks great!

I’m impressed with how the V710s look on the 1 series. Too used to seeing these models on other German cars, they look great here as well.

Great looking setup! Love the aggressive stance!

Hi all, am looking to purchase a set of VMRs for my 135i. I really want to save some $$ and use the set of michelin pilots I already have sitting in my garage. Tires sizes are: 245/35r18 and 215/40r18. Any advice on what size I should get? I'm not looking for anything aggressive, and do not want to deal with spacers, rolling fenders, etc. Will the 18x9.5 +50 and 18x8.5 +45 work with those tires? that seems to be the setup most use. Thanks in advance!

It'll be a little stretched but should fit without needing to worry about the bead.

@vmr + all input welcomed

Bone stock 2011 128i E88, non sport, base vert. Current situation, factory 16" wheels. Looking for fitment, VMR wheel, size etc? Don't want spacers or susp work right now. Will 18" fit ok or should I go 17? Thx

Great thread btw, cars = jealousy

Go 18's. Our cars look great with 18's. You will regret going 17's.

The V703 is pretty aggressive on the 1 series since the offsets aren't as high. the 18x8.5 ET35 and 18x9.5 ET45 will work, but it will probably take some work. You'll probably have to go with 215 tires and some camber or rolled fenders to get the fronts to fit. It'll be pretty stretched. The rear might be slightly aggressive too. Maybe just lower profile tires. 215/40/18 for the fronts and 245/35/18 for the rear is what I would recommend

I see. Was really looking to run this wheel. Do the wheels currently come in a size where i won’t have to add camber or roll fenders?

They do, but we're currently out of stock of the front wheels. I'll send you a PM.

Will 18" clear AP pro 5000r BBK w/ 365mm rotor?

[duder13]

I have a v710 et 45 18"/8.5" in the front (see above,) and I was wondering if a 235/40 tire should be an issue. Apex's wheels have similar measurements, and they recommend 235/40 on the front. Any ideas?
