1er's with VMR's

EVL1 · 04-03-2014, 05:29 AM

A little bit more on the aggressive side for the rear. You can't really see them very well in this pic but they are Vader Black Vb3s; Up front is 18x8.5 et40 and the rear is 18x9.5 et22. Both front and rear have rolled and pulled fenders. The rear had to be lifted up some and the suspension was stiffened to avoid rubbing on the tire. Once I add some more rear camber I will be lowering it back down again. It looks mean in person

Looks nice! Can you show me some closeups from the fitment of the front wheel and the wheelarch?

Thanks!

Hi, I'm new. I just got my V810s with Pilot AS225/265 18s by way of Tire Rack - I appreciate both VMR and Tire Rack's cooperation taking care of my BMWs! Please excuse the Ipad pictures, will take better ones with an HD camera later on.

I’m looking into the V703s (18x8.5 ET 40 and 18x9.5 et45) I’m dropped on the BilsteinB12 kit (1" lower all around from the msport) I was thinking about running 225s up front and 255s in the rear. Does anyone have any experience with this set up? The fronts are already rolled but the rears are not. I’m not sure if I will need to roll or camber the rear to run a 255. Any input is appreciated. Thanks

Sorry for the delay. I've been super busy with work and while not at work, busy at car shows. But here are some pictures of the front. Currently the setup has stretch tires for testing purposes before I buy my real set of tires so don't mind the gap between tire and fender. It will be filled in with meat soon

Here's are a few of the rear. Notice I had to raise the rear so It didn't rub on the tire on speed bumps or on dips on the highway.

And a side pic for you guys

Honestly, I don't remember who I got the splitter through, I got it a long time ago. Sorry

That company's name sounds familiar but I got it through their website not on eBay. Unless they took their website down and just made it all straight ebay. Idk

Wow I would've thought et22 would stick out much more. Doesn't seem extreme to me at all. Just looks good. Well done sir. Nice car!

Nice! That looks pretty good. Very aggressive in the rear. Is your camber maxed out in the rear?

berne · 04-08-2014, 01:24 PM

Had the same question for you as well....Looks like your stilling poking out hard in the rear and I was gonna ask if there is a reason you hadn't put more camber in the rear to be more flush instead?

What size tyres do you have on the front?
