I finally made the long hard decision we've all had to make. What wheels do i go with for my car? That decision was easy once i saw a post from VMR highlighting their V803s in Hypersilver. I was torn between square and staggered but once they arrived I was glad I went with staggered. I placed my order through WheelsDC and Mike was great. The transaction was smooth and he was quick to answer any questions I had regarding time frame, tpms, tire choices, etc... I placed my order and in quick fashion the wheels were out for delivery.
Specs are:
- 19x8.5 et35 235/40/19 Pilot Sport 4s
- 19x9.5 et45 265/35/19 Pilot Sport 4s
My car is xdrive and for me these wheels with the chosen offsets fit perfectly flush at this ride height. I couldn't imagine how much they would have poked if i went with a lot of other wheel companies who offer ET35 or even ET40 in the rear. In my opinion, at stock height for the F30, ET45 is perfect when paired with a 265 MPS4S.
Wheels arrived in two boxes with 2 wheels with tires already mounted in each box.
The packaging was great and the wheels were wrapped in shrink wrap a few times, then foam padding on the face with a layer of cardboard on each side and strapped
After an application of a synthetic wax they are ready to be installed
