I hear you but I had a nice set of $4000 wheels on my E92 and it was nerve racking worrying about pot holes, curbs etc.. Would be nice to find a decent looking cheap wheel and not worry about damaging it. I have a set of VMR wheels on my wifes E90 and indeed the quality is not good. You get what you pay for,

Vmr wheels are nice for the price definitely can't say anything bad about them. I had them on my benzs as well. I know eas has a lot of the special colors for bmws that other shops can't get.

I had Mate black VMR VB3 that i got from EAS on my E90 M3, i used them for 1 winter and 2 summers, and they still look good.
I even hit one. and it barelly chipped it, and i touched them up with paint, work great. Sure it ait no BBS, but for the money, i was very happy. With the crapy road we have in Quebec, no reason to spend the big $$$ on wheel up here. And if they are to hot, would get them stollen.

i was looking at the VB3 too for my new F10, getting it tomorrow
in 20 x 10, the wheel has a nice concave look to it. not sure if with the required offset, if it will have the same look to it.

I recently stopped by Trinity Autosport and the owner put some 20" VMR's on his E60 M5 and it looked damn good!! It looked so good I might even pick up a set for a winter setup!

Joes m5 right? They are nice wheels and I know he can hook it up with tires for cheap!
I also don't think it matters that vmr is made in Taiwan, I've seen worse finishes from a lot of these 'high quality' 3 piece forged wheel companies that pop up every week. |

Yup joes m5... Yeah vmr wheels are actually not bad... Hence the reason they have been around for a long time and it's still very popular amongst the E9x owners

Ah I see your logic! I suggest all track running atheletes to wear very heavy sneakers

A little late to the party, but better late then never.
I don't happen to have any 20" VB3 photos quite yet, but I do have some 20" V710's. Maybe this might help? -Charles@VMRWheels

Hi Edman951, did you get the VB3's mounted for your F10? If yes, how does it look? Can you share some pictures with us? I would really like to see how they look as I'm interested in getting a set as well. Thanks |
