Any of you guys with the VMR Wheels have Run Flats fitted and if so did you have any problems? Finding it a bit of a nightmare in the UK getting my current Run Flats swapped over.... Seems like a big job...

I'm thinking either the 810's or 710's in hyper silver - leaning towards the 710's. Do you have any photos of the 710's in 18" installed? Thanks...

PM'd! Here are a few posts that show one of our customers on 18" V710's!

Ordered these bad boys yesterday from VMRWheels guy. The conversation was pretty funny: "Oh, no stock on XXX? What about XXX+1?" "No Stock." Repeat a few times. "Maybe you could tell me what you DO have in stock??" *clickety-clackity* "I got these" "Send me a pic" "OK" "OMG sick yes gimme". ��

'V804'
Purchased them for a month. Love them very much.
Very light weight!!

Got my new wheels and tires installed today. I was a little apprehensive because I'd only seen photos of the wheels and I did not open the boxes after delivery, so I didn't see them for reals until they rolled him out of the service bay.

Fortunately I am VERY VERY VERY happy with the looks.

These are apparently a limited edition 710, same size and offset as OE 403M wheels. I went wider on the tires: Pilot 4S 245/35-19 front, 275/30-19 rear.

Can't wait to go for a mountain drive soon!

they look fantastic on your car. nice choice! what is the finish on them?

those cant be the same size as 403m. the 403m are 8 et34/8.5 et47 and the vmr are 8.5 et35/9.5 et45. those new tire sizes fit really well. im between that (245/275 with a 25.8 diameter) and the traditional upsize of 235/265 to get a slightly taller height (26.3)

Great photos! These are actually the lightest wheels in our lineup!

These limited edition V710's look like a perfect fit on your car! Thanks for sharing these photos!

Can you PM me if you have v803 or v804 19x8.5et35/19x9.5et45 in gunmetal? Looking to buy a set this week.

The inside is a gloss black with multi-colored metallic bits. Not flashy. The face is a smoked gray finish.

My 403M were staggered, 225 front 255 rear. Unsure if they are the same width though. But the replacements are a great fit with NO rubbing.

My only concern is the rear bumper cover that wraps around is now exposed to road debris from the wide rear tires. I might get some film applied there.

Who else likes aggressive fitment? This F30 is running Gunmetal V710's with a 19x10 ET38 in the rear for a perfectly flush fitment!

[Diirek]

Threw my new setup on last night. 18" VMR 710's in Gunmetal. Exactly what I was looking for...

Front: 18 x 8.5 with Hankook Ventus V12 225/45/18
Rear: 18 x 9.5 with Hankook Ventus V12 255/40/18

I live in Boston and the roads are unforgiving. Wanted to add some aggressiveness without my teeth chattering on every bump. Brandon from VMR set me up with the whole wheel/tire/TPMS package and helped me through every step of the way - Customer service was second to none. Wheels were packaged very well and shipping was on time and accurate. The new pressure sensors registered right away and were reset to the car within minutes.

The shorter sidewalls, extra width and more aggressive offsets are subtle - But just enough to change the look and feel of the car.

And a PSA to all the newbs out there with fresh new wheels (this includes myself) - DO NOT take your perfectly new setup through the automated car wash!!!! Within an hour of having my new wheels on the car, 3 of them were scratched/scarred by the guardrails at the car wash. DO NOT MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE I DID!!!! Live and learn....

VMR 803 in Hypersilver wrapped in MPS4S
19x8.5 et35 235/40/19
19x9.5 et45 265/35/19

Sits flush enough for me at stock Xdrive height. Glad i went with these in et45 instead of another wheel i was considering at et40 or even at et35

[paimon.soror]

dang thats nice fitment. love the meat on the rear tires

245/40/19 Pirelli Pzero Nero AS non runflats

No rubbing at full lockout, tires are meaty as fuck but I love the look, speedo is good/pretty normal, ride is great not afraid of small potholes.....and the squared setup was the best thing I did wheels and tires wise in 17 years of owning bmws!! I am not lowering or playing with suspension, and this thing is levels better than it was with staggered oem 18's and 19's

Looks really good! The higher profile tire choice you made really cut out a lot of wheel gap. I just ordered the 710's in the same size wheels, and I also ordered the same size tires, only real difference is I have a RWD and I'm on stock M-sport adaptive suspension. So I'm starting off with a lower car than yours... Here's to hoping I don't have rubbing!

Nice! You'll have to post up when you get them. You should be fine at rwd msport suspension. I have about a 2 finger gap between wheel and fender and the wheels are inside the fender enough that I don't think you'd rub. The mps4s sit nicely only the wheel widths without looking stretched at all. Love the look

Yessir!! Thank you for the input and actually swaying me!!

I have a f32 silver 435xdrive on stock suspension. Thinking about going with either VMR 710FF or 803. If I go with 803's, I would go with Hyper silver. Not sure if I should go square or staggered setup. I am leaning towards square setup. Will the staggered setup effect the drivetrain and/or suspension in the long run as opposed to a straight setup? Was thinking of going with a 235 45 19's (8.5 wide) all around (don't want to create a bigger gap) Would this work for my car? Any opinions on what wheel/color would look best? Are 19's much more harsh on the roads compared to 18's (I live in NY). Thanks

oem is 26". 235/45/19 is 27.3", way too tall. apparently the outer shoulder of a 235/40/19 (26.3") rubs the left fenderwell liner while turning on this F36xd. not sure if your F32xd has more room but i don't think it does.

https://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1515979

any difference between staggered or square on your drivetrain would be minimal. staggered for looks, square to reduce understeer. from the linked thread, tires for f32/36xd's should not exceed 26.3" up front if the offset is +35 or lower.

Then it looks like I have to go with 18's then, thanks. I thought I read somewhere that an 18" VMR's barrel doesn't clear the msport brake caliper. Can anyone verify if that's true or not.
