VMR v710 vs. M3 style wheels

PunjabiMC · 01-31-2012, 07:22 AM

hey guys

i have a black e90 328i pre LCI, n i wanted to get your opinion. i was thinking about getting m3 style rims but i saw a pic of gun metal vmr v710's and fell in love with that. now im really confused, so what would you guys say, gun metal vmr v710? or m3 style silver rims. keep in mind my e90 is black

this is the m3 style rims just for reference

Both are nice rims, but I would go with the VMR rims in gunmetal. I think the gunmetal looks better on a black car.

VMR!

VMR!...I am in the same boat. I just got a 2009 328i/ jet black and the stock wheels are not going to do it for me. I'm looking at V710 or the VB3's. From what I hear VMR's are great. Call them up, Don from VMR was very helpful over the phone and then sent me an email with all the info I needed.

I love the M3 style above - Just bought the 19" staggered setup! Can't wait for the summer.

Bought them off an e90post member. but when I was researching, I noticed **********s have a really nice set. Also tire rack had a similar style by Elbrus. Search their website. Unfortunately shipping was killing the deal for me in both the cases.

All in all, it depends on personal preference. If you're looking for a more OEM look, then the E9X M3 style wheels would be a good choice. If you're looking for an aftermarket feel that is more concave with a more aggressive look, then go for the VMR V710 in GM!

I prefer to get the Avant Garde M359 for better look and concave!
