The other option is to run a 9.5 ET50 rear with a 255 tire. We currently have those in production and they should be arriving towards the very end of April or early May. I am taking preorders for those right now, if you are interested!

VMRWheels is it possible running a square setup of 18x8.5 ET40s on a lowered 235?

Any other ET 40 8.5" x 19" offerings ?

Yes it is possible, but we don't offer anything in an 18x8.5 ET40. Only the 19x8.5 ET40 V703 (VB3). You could always run an ET45 with a 5mm spacer. Just know that it will be pretty close to the suspension in the front.

Nothing other than the V703 (VB3). You could always run an ET45 with a 5mm spacer though!

I was thinking about 19" but this is the setup I want, just in black. That looks nice. I just bought my car from the lot, and the dealer had it configured with 225's all season tires all around.

PM'd. Let me know if there's anything I can do to help you out!

qnet · 03-11-2016, 12:58 PM

Well, I got the v710's. I got them off Amazon so I could use my Amazon card and get benefits from that. This thread has been very helpful. I got the same size and set up that starvmarv has, except mine are black (F) 8.5 ET35 (R) 9.5 ET45. Stock suspension and MPSS (F) 225 18 (R) 245 18.

These wheels are a lot more aggressive looking in person, and I really like them. Now all I need is to decide if I want to get some Dinan springs.

Very cool! You and starvmarv are almost twins!

Very nice! I too am wanting Dinan Springs, but I already scrape with my M Performance Carbon Fiber on some driveways and shopping centers. I'm still driving around town, if that's all I scrape on then I'll pull the trigger on Dinan. I HATE wheel gap!

Yeah, I have to be careful with the Dinan springs also. I have a front lip that came on the car. I haven't scraped anywhere yet, and my house is on a hill. When I had my E36 M3 It scrapped a little coming into my driveway, but it sat lower than the Dinan springs will make my M235i sit.

Luxury edition M3 i see (i can tell by the interior and sideskirts). HA! We both have good taste. I too had a Cosmos M3 (1995 w/ grey alcantara full interior)! Was running on Bilstein pss9 Coilovers....my lip on that only lasted 3 months before being shattered over a dead cat on the road.

Here is the car on 703s shortly after a wash. I will need to snap better pics when I get a chance.

Has there been any consideration for more options in an ET40? I'm also looking around for an 18x8 or 18x8.5 in this offset.

If you are looking for an 18x8.5 ET40, I would recommend an 18x8.5 ET45 with a 5mm spacer. The VB3 is the only wheel that is offered in the ET40.

What % tint do you and who makes it?

X54TH · 03-24-2016, 08:49 PM

My son ordered his VMR 710's in black today. Now just waiting for his M235 Alpine White with Corel Red interior to arrive. Going to use the stock tires on the VMRs. Turning stock rims into a winter setup. I'll deal with winter tires later.
