VMR | Wheels - VB3 & V718 Wheel Comparison Photos

I've been getting a number of questions about the differences between our VB3 and V718 wheel, so here are some comparison shots we just took to help you guys determine the difference. Quite subtle, but definitely a nice change for an updated look! :thumbup:

718s look better with the sharper edges. It also looks more concave which I take means it's a no-go for the 1?

VMR guys,

Are these offered in 18" and 1er offsets that will NOT rub?

Will they have fitment issues with 225-40 and 255-35 tires.

Thanks,
miiipilot

19x8.5 +45 front and 19x9.5 +45 rear will work perfect with a 225/245 setup.

Unfortunately no 18" sizes yet in our V718. We do happen to have the V710 in a 18" for 1-Series.
